Here is the fixup 2/3 to address Johannes’ comments.

Subject: [PATCH] fixup for mm/page_isolation: remove migratetype from
 move_freepages_block_isolate()

1. replace get_pageblock_isolate() with
   get_pageblock_migratetype() == MIGRATE_ISOLATE, a
   get_pageblock_isolate() becomes private in mm/page_isolation.c
