mm: compaction: check for overlapping nodes during isolation for migration

When isolating pages for migration, migration starts at the start of a
zone while the free scanner starts at the end of the zone.  Migration
avoids entering a new zone by never going beyond the free scanned.

Unfortunately, in very rare cases nodes can overlap.  When this happens,
migration isolates pages without the LRU lock held, corrupting lists
which will trigger errors in reclaim or during page free such as in the
following oops

The "X" in the taint flag means that external modules were loaded but but
is unrelated to the bug triggering.  The real problem was because the PFN
layout looks like this

  Zone PFN ranges:
    DMA      0x00000010 -> 0x00001000
    DMA32    0x00001000 -> 0x00100000
    Normal   0x00100000 -> 0x01e80000
  Movable zone start PFN for each node
  early_node_map[14] active PFN ranges
      0: 0x00000010 -> 0x0000009b
      0: 0x00000100 -> 0x0007a1ec
      0: 0x0007a354 -> 0x0007a379
      0: 0x0007f7ff -> 0x0007f800
      0: 0x00100000 -> 0x00680000
      1: 0x00680000 -> 0x00e80000
      0: 0x00e80000 -> 0x01080000
      1: 0x01080000 -> 0x01280000
      0: 0x01280000 -> 0x01480000
      1: 0x01480000 -> 0x01680000
      0: 0x01680000 -> 0x01880000
      1: 0x01880000 -> 0x01a80000
      0: 0x01a80000 -> 0x01c80000
      1: 0x01c80000 -> 0x01e80000

The fix is straight-forward.  isolate_migratepages() has to make a
similar check to isolate_freepage to ensure that it never isolates pages
from a zone it does not hold the LRU lock for.

This was discovered in a 3.0-based kernel but it affects 3.1.x, 3.2.x
and current mainline.
