Subject: [PATCH 3/3] mm/hugetlb: add hugepage isolation support

When a range of pageblocks is isolated there is at most one
hugepage that has only tail pages overlapping that range (i.e.
a hugepage that overlaps the beginning of the range).

However, that hugepage is the first migration target for an
alloc_contig_range() attempt so it already receives special
attention.

Checking whether the pageblock containing the head of a hugepage
is isolated is an inexpensive way to avoid hugepage allocations
from isolated pageblocks which makes alloc_contig_range() more
efficient.
