[PATCH] mm/compaction: remove local variable is_lru

[Ganesh Mahendran]

local varialbe is_lru was used for tracking non-lru pages(such as
balloon pages).

But commit
112ea7b668d3 ("mm: migrate: support non-lru movable page migration")
introduced a common framework for non-lru page migration and moved
the compound pages check before non-lru movable pages check.

So there is no need to use local variable is_lru.

this commit sha is not stable because it is from the linux-next tree.

Other than that the patch looks ok and maybe it would be worth folding
into the mm-migrate-support-non-lru-movable-page-migration.patch
