commit 075782149abf ("mm/page_isolation: unset migratetype directly for
non Buddy page") will result memory that should in buddy disappear by
mistake. move_freepages_block move all pages in pageblock instead of
pages indicated by input parameter, so if input pages is not in buddy
but other pages in pageblock is in buddy, it will result in page out of
control.

I was wondering about exactly that condition when skimming over the
patch but didn't have time review in detail.
when the first valid page in pageblock is non-buddy page and the page order
is not equal pagblock_order,  unset_migratetype_isolate will missing move free
page in this pageblock.
