We don't have to add a freeable page into lru and then remove from it. This change saves a couple of actions and makes the moving more clear. The SetPageLRU needs to be kept here for list intergrity.

This function reavaluates lruvec for each page under lru lock. Probably this is redundant for now but could be used in the future (or your patchset already use that).
Thanks a lot for comments, Konstantin! yes, we could use pgdat here, but since to remove the pgdat later, maybe better to save this change? :)

Right, I will try to give a comments here.

Yes, this looks better! Thanks Alex
