    Commit 39deaf85 ("mm: compaction: make isolate_lru_page() filter-aware")
    noted that compaction does not migrate dirty or writeback pages and that
    is was meaningless to pick the page and re-add it to the LRU list.  This
    had to be partially reverted because some dirty pages can be migrated by
    compaction without blocking.
    
    This patch updates "mm: compaction: make isolate_lru_page" by skipping
    over pages that migration has no possibility of migrating to minimise LRU
    disruption.
