My patch is applied on 3.10 release. I'm sorry that my working department is
forbidden to access all the urls based on git protocol, so I can not make patch on
your aio_next. Does aio_next have trees based on http/https protocol?

Your fix looks very well.
IMHO, because we *extern* the migrate_page_move_mapping(), so we have
the duty to make sure it can work well all the place. If some one later use
migrate_page_move_mapping() with out the protection of CONFIG_MIGRATION,
it will lead to build-fail if CONFIG_MIGRATION is disable. So I think the
following change(return ENOSYS error is CONFIG_MIGRATION disabled) is still needed.
