When we successfully find a pageblock in
fast_find_migrateblock(), the block will be set
skip-flag through set_pageblock_skip().
However, when entering isolate_migratepages_block(),
the whole pageblock will be skipped due to the branch
'if (!valid_page && IS_ALIGNED(low_pfn, pageblock_nr_pages))'.
Eventually we will goto isolate_abort and isolate nothing.
That cause fast_find_migrateblock useless.

In this Patch, when we find a suitable pageblock in
fast_find_migrateblock, we do noting but let
isolate_migratepages_block to set skip flag to
the pageblock after scan it. Normally, we would
isolate some pages from the fast-find block.

I use mmtest/thpscale-madvhugepage test it. Here
is the result:
