This fixes the following hard lockup in function isolate_lru_folios
when memory reclaim.If the LRU mostly contains ineligible folios
May trigger watchdog.

Scenario:
User processe are requesting a large amount of memory and keep page active.
Then a module continuously requests memory from ZONE_DMA32 area.
Memory reclaim will be triggered due to ZONE_DMA32 watermark alarm reached.
However pages in the LRU(active_anon) list are mostly from
the ZONE_NORMAL area.
Reproduce:
Terminal 1: Construct to continuously increase pages active(anon).
mkdir /tmp/memory
mount -t tmpfs -o size=1024000M tmpfs /tmp/memory
dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/memory/block bs=4M
tail /tmp/memory/block
Terminal 2:
vmstat -a 1
active will increase.

When the Active(anon) is 115345744 kB, insmod module triggers
the ZONE_DMA32 watermark.

See nr_scanned=28835844.
28835844 * 4k = 115343376KB approximately equal to 115345744 kB.
If increase Active(anon) to 1000G then insmod module triggers
the ZONE_DMA32 watermark. hard lockup will occur.
In my device nr_scanned = 0000000003e3e937 when hard lockup.
Convert to memory size 0x0000000003e3e937 * 4KB = 261072092 KB.

About the Fixes:
Why did it take eight years to be discovered?
The problem requires the following conditions to occur:
1. The device memory should be large enough.
2. Pages in the LRU(active_anon) list are mostly from the ZONE_NORMAL area.
3. The memory in ZONE_DMA32 needs to reach the watermark.
If the memory is not large enough, or if the usage design of ZONE_DMA32
area memory is reasonable, this problem is difficult to detect.
notes:
The problem is most likely to occur in ZONE_DMA32 and ZONE_NORMAL,
but other suitable scenarios may also trigger the problem.
