In isolate_migratepages_block, if we have too many isolated pages and nr_migratepages is not zero, we should try to migrate what we have without wasting time on isolating. In theory it's possible that multiple parallel compactions will cause too_many_isolated() to become true even if each has isolated less than COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX, and loop forever in the while loop. Bailing immediately prevents that.

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.
