kpageflags: detect isolated KPF_THP folios
When folio is isolated, the PG_lru bit is cleared. So the PG_lru check in
stable_page_flags() will miss this kind of isolated folios. Use
folio_test_large_rmappable() instead to also include isolated folios.
Since pagecache supports large folios and the introduction of mTHP, the
semantics of KPF_THP have been expanded, now it indicates not only
PMD-sized THP. Update related documentation to clearly state that KPF_THP
indicates multiple order THPs.
[ran.xiaokai@zte.com.cn: directly use is_zero_folio(), per David]
