Subject[PATCH] mm: migrate: Fix THP's mapcount on isolation
Date
The issue is reported when removing memory through virtio_mem device.
The transparent huge page, experienced copy-on-write fault, is wrongly
regarded as pinned. The transparent huge page is escaped from being
isolated in isolate_migratepages_block(). The transparent huge page
can't be migrated and the corresponding memory block can't be put
into offline state.

Fix it by replacing page_mapcount() with total_mapcount(). With this,
the transparent huge page can be isolated and migrated, and the memory
block can be put into offline state.

Fixes: 3917c80280c9 ("thp: change CoW semantics for anon-THP")
