Subject: [PATCH] Revert "mm: skip CMA pages when they are not available"

This reverts commit 5da226dbfce3 ("mm: skip CMA pages when they are not
available") and b7108d66318a ("Multi-gen LRU: skip CMA pages when they are
not eligible").

lruvec->lru_lock is highly contended and is held when calling
isolate_lru_folios.  If the lru has a large number of CMA folios
consecutively, while the allocation type requested is not MIGRATE_MOVABLE,
isolate_lru_folios can hold the lock for a very long time while it skips
those.  For FIO workload, ~150million order=0 folios were skipped to
isolate a few ZONE_DMA folios [1].  This can cause lockups [1] and high
memory pressure for extended periods of time [2].

Remove skipping CMA for MGLRU as well, as it was introduced in sort_folio
for the same resaon as 5da226dbfce3a2f44978c2c7cf88166e69a6788b.
