Subject: [PATCH 3.8 095/166] mm/compaction: respect ignore_skip_hint in update_pageblock_skip

3.8.13.16 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@....com>

commit 6815bf3f233e0b10c99a758497d5d236063b010b upstream.

update_pageblock_skip() only fits to compaction which tries to isolate
by pageblock unit.  If isolate_migratepages_range() is called by CMA, it
try to isolate regardless of pageblock unit and it don't reference
get_pageblock_skip() by ignore_skip_hint.  We should also respect it on
update_pageblock_skip() to prevent from setting the wrong information.
