mm: strictly require elevated page refcount in isolate_lru_page()
isolate_lru_page() must be called only with stable reference to the page,
this is what is written in the comment above it, this is reasonable.
current isolate_lru_page() users and its page extra reference sources:
mm/huge_memory.c:
__collapse_huge_page_isolate() - reference from pte
mm/memcontrol.c:
mem_cgroup_move_parent() - get_page_unless_zero()
mem_cgroup_move_charge_pte_range() - reference from pte
mm/memory-failure.c:
soft_offline_page() - fixed, reference from get_any_page()
delete_from_lru_cache() - reference from caller or get_page_unless_zero()
[ seems like there bug, because __memory_failure() can call
page_action() for hpages tail, but it is ok for
isolate_lru_page(), tail getted and not in lru]
mm/memory_hotplug.c:
do_migrate_range() - fixed, get_page_unless_zero()
mm/mempolicy.c:
migrate_page_add() - reference from pte
mm/migrate.c:
do_move_page_to_node_array() - reference from follow_page()
mlock.c: - various external references
mm/vmscan.c:
putback_lru_page() - reference from isolate_lru_page()
It seems that all isolate_lru_page() users are ready now for this
restriction. So, let's replace redundant get_page_unless_zero() with
get_page() and add page initial reference count check with VM_BUG_ON()
