Subject: [RFC v2 PATCH] mm/hotplug: enable memory hotplug for non-lru movable pages

We had considered all of the non-lru pages as unmovable before
commit bda807d44454 ("mm: migrate: support non-lru movable page
migration"). But now some of non-lru pages like zsmalloc,
virtio-balloon pages also become movable. So we can offline such
blocks by using non-lru page migration.

This patch straightforwardly add non-lru migration code, which
means adding non-lru related code to the functions which scan
over pfn and collect pages to be migrated and isolate them before
migration.
