Minchan Kim 03ef83af52 mm: fix for infinite churning of mlocked pages 
An mlocked page might lose the isolatation race.  This causes the page to
clear PG_mlocked while it remains in a VM_LOCKED vma.  This means it can
be put onto the [in]active list.  We can rescue it by using try_to_unmap()
in shrink_page_list().

But now, As Wu Fengguang pointed out, vmscan has a bug.  If the page has
PG_referenced, it can't reach try_to_unmap() in shrink_page_list() but is
put into the active list.  If the page is referenced repeatedly, it can
remain on the [in]active list without being moving to the unevictable
list.

This patch fixes it.
