If an unevictable folio isolated successfully, there will be two more _refcount. The one from folio_isolate_lru() will be decreased in folio_puback_lru(), but the other one from damon_get_folio() will be left behind. This causes a pin page. Whatever the case, the _refcount from damon_get_folio() should be decreased.
