Subject: [PATCH v3 9/9] mm/page_isolation: clean up confused code

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

When there is an isolated_page, post_alloc_hook() is called with
page but __free_pages() is called with isolated_page. Since they are
the same so no problem but it's very confusing. To reduce it,
this patch changes isolated_page to boolean type and uses page variable
consistently.
