[RFC PATCH v3 2/8] mm: compaction: handle non-lru compound pages properly in isolate_migratepages_block().

From: Zi Yan <ziy at nvidia.com>

In isolate_migratepages_block(), a !PageLRU tail page can be encountered
when the page is larger than a pageblock. Use compound head page for the
checks inside and skip the entire compound page when isolation succeeds.
