From: Konstantin Khlebnikov <k.khlebnikov@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/balloon_compaction: isolate balloon pages without lru_lock
LRU-lock isn't required for balloon page isolation. This check makes
migration of some ballooned pages mostly impossible because
isolate_migratepages_range() drops LRU lock periodically.
