I wrote this to fix bug I originally attributed to refcounting patchset, but Sasha triggered the same bug on -next without the patchset applied: http://lkml.kernel.org/g/553eb993.7030...@oracle.com Now I think it's related to changing of PageLRU() behaviour on tail page by my page flags patchset. PageLRU() on tail pages now reports true if head page is on LRU. It means no we can go futher insede isolate_migratepages_block() with tail page. -- Kirill A.
