Since commit bda807d44454 ("mm: migrate: support non-lru movable page
migration") isolate_migratepages_block) can isolate !PageLRU pages which
would acct_isolated account as NR_ISOLATED_*.  Accounting these non-lru
pages NR_ISOLATED_{ANON,FILE} doesn't make any sense and it can misguide
heuristics based on those counters such as pgdat_reclaimable_pages resp.
too_many_isolated which would lead to unexpected stalls during the
direct reclaim without any good reason.  Note that
__alloc_contig_migrate_range can isolate a lot of pages at once.

On mobile devices such as 512M ram android Phone, it may use a big zram
swap.  In some cases zram(zsmalloc) uses too many non-lru but
migratedable pages, such as:

      MemTotal: 468148 kB
      Normal free:5620kB
      Free swap:4736kB
      Total swap:409596kB
      ZRAM: 164616kB(zsmalloc non-lru pages)
      active_anon:60700kB
      inactive_anon:60744kB
      active_file:34420kB
      inactive_file:37532kB

Fix this by only accounting lru pages to NR_ISOLATED_* in
isolate_migratepages_block right after they were isolated and we still
know they were on LRU.  Drop acct_isolated because it is called after
the fact and we've lost that information.  Batching per-cpu counter
doesn't make much improvement anyway.  Also make sure that we uncharge
only LRU pages when putting them back on the LRU in
putback_movable_pages resp.  when unmap_and_move migrates the page.

[mhocko@suse.com: replace acct_isolated() with direct counting]
