set_migratetype_isolate() does not allow isolating MIGRATE_CMA pageblocks unless it is used for CMA allocation. isolate_single_pageblock() did not have the same behavior when it is used together with set_migratetype_isolate() in start_isolate_page_range(). This allows alloc_contig_range() with migratetype other than MIGRATE_CMA, like MIGRATE_MOVABLE (used by alloc_contig_pages()), to isolate first and last pageblock but fail the rest. The failure leads to changing migratetype of the first and last pageblock to MIGRATE_MOVABLE from MIGRATE_CMA, corrupting the CMA region. This can happen during gigantic page allocations. Like Doug said here: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/a3363a52-883b-dcd1-b77f-f2bb378d6f2d@gmail.com/T/#u, for gigantic page allocations, the user would notice no difference, since the allocation on CMA region will fail as well as it did before. But it might hurt the performance of device drivers that use CMA, since CMA region size decreases. Fix it by passing migratetype into isolate_single_pageblock(), so that set_migratetype_isolate() used by isolate_single_pageblock() will prevent the isolation happening.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
