This is a HIGHATOMIC page being freed to the MOVABLE buddy list.

Highatomic pages have their own buddy freelists, but not their own
pcplist. free_one_page() adjusts the migratetype so they can hitchhike
on the MOVABLE pcplist. However, when the pcp trylock then fails,
they're fed directly to the buddy list - with the incorrect type.

Use MIGRATE_MOVABLE only for the pcp, not for the buddy bypass.
