The old version still works, right?

It would match is_migrate_isolate() a bit better, but no strong
feelings either way...

Would it make sense to move these to page_isolation.c? Then they
wouldn't have to be macros.

Since MIGRATETYPE_MASK includes the isolate bit if it exists, I think
you can share the get_pfnblock_flags_mask() part:

static inline get_pageblock_migratetype(const struct page *page)
{
	unsigned long pfn = page_to_pfn(page);

	flags = get_pfnblock_flags_mask(page, pfn, MIGRATETYPE_MASK);
#ifdef CONFIG_MEMORY_ISOLATEION
	if (flags & PB_migrate_isolate_bit)
		return MIGRATE_ISOLATE;
#endif
	return flags;
}

Same with this one.

Are there paths actually doing this after the second patch?

There are many instances that want to *read* the migratetype or
MIGRATE_ISOLATE, but only isolation code should be manipulating that
bit through the dedicated set/toggle_pageblock_isolate API.

If there isn't one, it might be good to enforce this with a VM_WARN
instead.

If the branch stays, you could add a `return' to the MIGRATE_ISOLATE
leg, drop the else and indent this line normally.
