Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/3] mm, page_alloc: get page migreate type again when related to highatomic

From: Wenwei Tao <ww.tao0320@...il.com>

The migratetype might get staled, pages might have become highatomic when
we try to free them to the allocator, we might not want to put highatomic
pages into other buddy lists, since they are reserved only for atomic high
order use. And also highatomic pages could have been unreserved,
put them into the hightatomic buddy list might exceed the limit of
highatomic pages. So get the pages migreate type again to put them into
the right lists.
