mm, compaction: fix NR_ISOLATED_* stats for pfn based migration
Since commit bda807d44454 ("mm: migrate: support non-lru movable page migration") isolate_migratepages_block) can isolate !PageLRU pages which would acct_isolated account as NR_ISOLATED_*. Accounting these non-lru pages NR_ISOLATED_{ANON,FILE} doesn't make any sense and it can misguide heuristics based on those counters such as pgdat_reclaimable_pages resp. too_many_isolated which would lead to unexpected stalls during the direct reclaim without any good reason. Note that __alloc_contig_migrate_range can isolate a lot of pages at once. On mobile devices such as 512M ram android Phone, it may use a big zram swap. In some cases zram(zsmalloc) uses too many non-lru but migratedable pages, such as: MemTotal: 468148 kB Normal free:5620kB Free swap:4736kB Total swap:409596kB ZRAM: 164616kB(zsmalloc non-lru pages) active_anon:60700kB inactive_anon:60744kB active_file:34420kB inactive_file:37532kB Fix this by only accounting lru pages to NR_ISOLATED_* in isolate_migratepages_block right after they were isolated and we still know they were on LRU. Drop acct_isolated because it is called after the fact and we've lost that information. Batching per-cpu counter doesn't make much improvement anyway. Also make sure that we uncharge only LRU pages when putting them back on the LRU in putback_movable_pages resp. when unmap_and_move migrates the page.
