Subject: [PATCH 2/6] mm, hwpoison: use __PageMovable() to detect non-lru movable pages

It's more recommended to use __PageMovable() to detect non-lru movable
pages. We can avoid bumping page refcnt via isolate_movable_page() for
the isolated lru pages. Also if pages become PageLRU just after they're
checked but before trying to isolate them, isolate_lru_page() will be
called to do the right work.
