__test_page_isolated_in_pageblock() in mm/page_isolation.c has a comment
saying that the caller must hold zone->lock. But the only caller of that
function, test_pages_isolated(), does not hold zone->lock and the lock is
also not acquired anywhere before. This patch adds the missing zone->lock
to test_pages_isolated().
We reproducibly run into BUG_ON(!PageBuddy(page)) in __offline_isolated_pages()
during memory hotplug stress test, see trace below. This patch fixes that
problem, it would be good if we could have it in 2.6.27.
