mm/migrate: make isolate_movable_page() skip slab pages
In the next commit we want to rearrange struct slab fields to allow a larger
rcu_head. Afterwards, the page->mapping field will overlap with SLUB's "struct
list_head slab_list", where the value of prev pointer can become LIST_POISON2,
which is 0x122 + POISON_POINTER_DELTA. Unfortunately the bit 1 being set can
confuse PageMovable() to be a false positive and cause a GPF as reported by lkp
[1].
To fix this, make isolate_movable_page() skip pages with the PageSlab flag set.
This is a bit tricky as we need to add memory barriers to SLAB and SLUB's page
allocation and freeing, and their counterparts to isolate_movable_page().
Based on my RFC from [2]. Added a comment update from Matthew's variant in [3]
and, as done there, moved the PageSlab checks to happen before trying to take
the page lock.
