Subject: [PATCH v1 3/5] mm/page_alloc: always move pages to the tail of the freelist in unset_migratetype_isolate()
Page isolation doesn't actually touch the pages, it simply isolates
pageblocks and moves all free pages to the MIGRATE_ISOLATE freelist.
We already place pages to the tail of the freelists when undoing
isolation via __putback_isolated_page(), let's do it in any case
(e.g., if order <= pageblock_order) and document the behavior.
Add a "to_tail" parameter to move_freepages_block() but introduce a
a new move_to_free_list_tail() - similar to add_to_free_list_tail().
This change results in all pages getting onlined via online_pages() to
be placed to the tail of the freelist.
