Subject[PATCH -V3 3/8] migrate_pages(): fix THP failure counting for -ENOMEM
Date
In unmap_and_move(), if the new THP cannot be allocated, -ENOMEM will
be returned, and migrate_pages() will try to split the THP unless
"reason" is MR_NUMA_MISPLACED (that is, nosplit == true). But when
nosplit == true, the THP migration failure will not be counted. This
is incorrect. So in this patch, the THP migration failure will be
counted for -ENOMEM regardless of nosplit is true or false. The
nr_failed counting isn't fixed because it's not used. Added some
comments for it per Baolin's suggestion.
