Subject: [PATCH v3 2/4] mm/migration: remove unneeded lock page and PageMovable check

When non-lru movable page was freed from under us, __ClearPageMovable must
have been done.  So we can remove unneeded lock page and PageMovable check
here. Also free_pages_prepare() will clear PG_isolated for us, so we can
further remove ClearPageIsolated as suggested by David.
