In __zone_reclaim case, we don't want to shrink mapped page.
Nonetheless, we have isolated mapped page and re-add it into
LRU's head. It's unnecessary CPU overhead and makes LRU churning.

Of course, when we isolate the page, the page might be mapped but
when we try to migrate the page, the page would be not mapped.
So it could be migrated. But race is rare and although it happens,
it's no big deal.
Same like with the previous patch. I think it would be better to
introduce ISOLATE_UNMAPPED here.

Other than that looks good to me
