From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@xxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/compaction: fix isolated page counting bug in compaction

acct_isolated() is the function to adjust isolated page count.  It
iterates cc->migratepages list and add NR_ISOLATED_ANON/NR_ISOLATED_FILE
count according to number of anon, file pages in migratepages list,
respectively.  Before commit (mm, compaction: move pageblock checks up
from isolate_migratepages_range()), it is called just once in
isolate_migratepages_range(), but, after commit, it is called in newly
introduced isolate_migratepages_block() and this
isolate_migratepages_block() could be called many times in
isolate_migratepages_range() so that some page could be counted more than
once.  This duplicate counting bug results in hang in cma_alloc(), because
too_many_isolated() returns true continually.

This patch fixes this bug by moving acct_isolated() into upper layer
function, isolate_migratepages_range() and isolate_migratepages().  After
this change, isolated page would be counted only once so problem would be
gone.
