From: Hugh Dickins <hu...@google.com>
At present MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT is allowing __isolate_lru_page() to
isolate a PageWriteback page, which __unmap_and_move() then rejects
with -EBUSY: of course the writeback might complete in between, but
that's not what we usually expect, so probably better not to isolate it.
