* pageblocks we may have modified and return -EBUSY to caller. This
* prevents two threads from simultaneously working on overlapping ranges.
*
+ * Please note that there is no strong synchronization with the page allocator
+ * either. Pages might be freed while their page blocks are marked ISOLATED.
+ * In some cases pages might still end up on pcp lists and that would allow
+ * for their allocation even when they are in fact isolated already. Depending
+ * on how strong of a guarantee the caller needs drain_all_pages might be needed
+ * (e.g. __offline_pages will need to call it after check for isolated range for
+ * a next retry).
+ *
* Return: the number of isolated pageblocks on success and -EBUSY if any part
* of range cannot be isolated.
