We should probably be calling SetPageLRU before we release the lru
lock instead of before. It might make sense to just call it before we
get here, similar to how you did in the isolate_fail_put case a few
lines later. Otherwise this seems to violate the rules you had set up
earlier where we were only going to be setting the LRU bit while
holding the LRU lock.
