mm: hwpoison: call shake_page() unconditionally

shake_page() is called before going into core error handling code in
order to ensure that the error page is flushed from lru_cache lists
where pages stay during transferring among LRU lists.

But currently it's not fully functional because when the page is linked
to lru_cache by calling activate_page(), its PageLRU flag is set and
shake_page() is skipped.  The result is to fail error handling with
"still referenced by 1 users" message.

When the page is linked to lru_cache by isolate_lru_page(), its PageLRU
is clear, so that's fine.

This patch makes shake_page() unconditionally called to avoild the
failure.
