In isolate_freepages_block() this means we actually go logically *back*
one pageblock, as the direction is opposite? I know it's not an issue
after the redesign patch so you wouldn't notice it when testing the
whole series. But there's a non-zero chance that the smaller fixes are
merged first and the redesign later...
