[PATCH v18 09/32] mm/page_idle: no unlikely double check for idle page counting

[Alex Shi]

As func comments mentioned, few isolated page missing be tolerated.
So why not do further to drop the unlikely double check. That won't
cause more idle pages, but reduce a lock contention.

This is also a preparation for later new page isolation feature.
