When setting MIGRATETYPE_ISOLATE on a pageblock, pcplists are drained to
have a better chance that all pages will be successfully isolated and
not left in the per-cpu caches.  Since isolation is always concerned
with a single zone, we can reduce the pcplists drain to the single zone,
which is now possible.

The change should make memory isolation faster and not disturbing
unrelated pcplists anymore.
