Some page blocks may leave the free list after zone->lock is released, so it is the caller's responsibility to either detect or prevent the use of such pages. One use example of this patch is to accelerate live migration by skipping the transfer of free pages reported from the guest. A popular method used by the hypervisor to track which part of memory is written during live migration is to write-protect all the guest memory. So, those pages that are reported as free pages but are written after the report function returns will be captured by the hypervisor, and they will be added to the next round of memory transfer.
