It seems that some pages can have both of PageActive and PageUnevictable
set. It looks buggy to me, so my proposal is clearing PageActive before
adding pages to unevictable list.

Subject: [PATCH] mm/swap.c: clear PageActive before adding pages onto
unevictable list
As a result of v3.10-3600-g13f7f78 "mm: pagevec: defer deciding which LRU
to add a page to until pagevec drain time," pages on unevictable lists can
have both of PageActive and PageUnevictable set. This is not only confusing,
but also corrupts page migration and shrink_[in]active_list.
This patch fixes the problem by adding ClearPageActive before adding pages
into unevictable list. It also cleans up VM_BUG_ONs.
