Here in this path there is a reserved page which is preventing
offlining a memory section but unfortunately dump_page() does
not print page->flags for a reserved page pinned there possibly
through memblock_reserve() during boot.

__offline_pages()
	start_isolate_page_range()

[   64.961174] page dumped because: unmovable page

The reason is dump_page() does not print page->flags universally
and only does so for KSM, Anon and File pages while excluding
reserved pages at boot. Wondering should not we make printing
page->flags universal ?
