isolate_freepages_block() rechecks if the pageblock is suitable to be a target for migration after it has taken the zone->lock. However, the check has been optimized to occur only once per pageblock, and compact_checklock_irqsave() might be dropping and reacquiring lock, which means somebody else might have changed the pageblock's migratetype meanwhile. Furthermore, nothing prevents the migratetype to change right after isolate_freepages_block() has finished isolating. Given how imperfect this is, it's simpler to just rely on the check done in isolate_freepages() without lock, and not pretend that the recheck under lock guarantees anything. It is just a heuristic after all.
