Subject[PATCH 1/3] remove wrong rotation at lumpy reclaim
From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com>

At lumpy reclaim, a page failed to be taken by __isolate_lru_page() can
be pushed back to "src" list by list_move(). But the page may not be from
"src" list. And list_move() itself is unnecessary because the page is
not on top of LRU. Then, leave it as it is if __isolate_lru_page() fails.

This patch doesn't change the logic as "we should exit loop or not" and
just fixes buggy list_move().
