In the patch below, you added a new set of start_isolate_pageblocks()
and undo_isolate_pageblocks(), where start_isolate_pageblocks() still
calls set_migratetype_isolate() and noted their range should not be
adjusted. But in my patch, set_migratetype_isolate() adjusts
the range for has_unmovable_pages() check. Do you mean
start_isolate_pageblocks() should call a different version of
set_migratetype_isolate() without range adjustment? That can be done
with an additional parameter in start_isolate_page_range(), like
bool strict, right?
