Compaction migratepages scanner calls update_pageblock_skip() for blocks where isolation failed. It currently does that also for blocks where no isolation was attempted because the skip bit was already set. This is wasteful, so this patch reuses the existing skipped_async_unsuitable flag to avoid setting the skip bit again.
