If it's not prepared to free unref page, the pcp page migratetype is
unset. Thus We will get rubbish from get_pcppage_migratetype() and
might list_del &page->lru again after it's already deleted from the
list leading to grumble about data corruption.

Fixes: df1acc856923 ("mm/page_alloc: avoid conflating IRQs disabled with zone->lock")
