Subject: mm: fix is_pinnable_page against a cma page
Git-commit: 1c563432588dbffa71e67ca6e37c826f9fa86e04
Patch-mainline: v5.19-rc1
References: jsc#PED-1294

Pages in the CMA area could have MIGRATE_ISOLATE as well as MIGRATE_CMA so
the current is_pinnable_page() could miss CMA pages which have
MIGRATE_ISOLATE.  It ends up pinning CMA pages as longterm for the
pin_user_pages() API so CMA allocations keep failing until the pin is
released.

                                        So, pinned the page successfully.
page migration failure with pinned page
                                        ..
                                        .. After 30 sec
                                        unpin_user_page(page)

CMA allocation succeeded after 30 sec.

The CMA allocation path protects the migration type change race using
zone->lock but what GUP path need to know is just whether the page is on
CMA area or not rather than exact migration type.  Thus, we don't need
zone->lock but just checks migration type in either of (MIGRATE_ISOLATE
and MIGRATE_CMA).

Adding the MIGRATE_ISOLATE check in is_pinnable_page could cause rejecting
of pinning pages on MIGRATE_ISOLATE pageblocks even though it's neither
CMA nor movable zone if the page is temporarily unmovable.  However, such
a migration failure by unexpected temporal refcount holding is general
issue, not only come from MIGRATE_ISOLATE and the MIGRATE_ISOLATE is also
transient state like other temporal elevated refcount problem.
