Summary

For managed pages, these two calls are not equivalent:
vm_page_unwire(PQ_NONE) will remove the page from its page queue, if
any, while vm_page_unwire_noq() leaves it alone. However, the existing
callers of vm_page_unwire(PQ_NONE) are applying it to fictitious or
unmanaged pages, so there should be no functional impact.

Just a note that the page is managed. It is because it is freed immediately after, we can use vm_page_unwire_noq().
