mm: prevent NR_ISOLATE_* stats from going negative
Commit 6afcf8ef0ca0 ("mm, compaction: fix NR_ISOLATED_* stats for pfn based migration") moved the dec_node_page_state() call (along with the page_is_file_cache() call) to after putback_lru_page(). But page_is_file_cache() can change after putback_lru_page() is called, so it should be called before putback_lru_page(), as it was before that patch, to prevent NR_ISOLATE_* stats from going negative. Without this fix, non-CONFIG_SMP kernels end up hanging in the while(too_many_isolated()) { congestion_wait() } loop in shrink_active_list() due to the negative stats.
