If trylock_page fails, the page won't be non-lru movable page. When this
page is freed via free_z3fold_page, it will trigger bug on PageMovable
check in __ClearPageMovable. Throw warning on failure of trylock_page to
guard against such rare case just as what zsmalloc does.

I don't see how this is better than what we currently have. We can
check if a page is movable before calling __ClearPageMovable instead.

Currently the z3fold page (unless headless page) is assumed to be non-lru movable.
We will always do __ClearPageMovable in free_z3fold_page which will trigger BUG_ON
!PageMovable now. And do you mean we should do something like below ?
