Subject[PATCH v6 2/2] mm/gup.c: Refactor check_and_migrate_movable_pages()
Date
When pinning pages with FOLL_LONGTERM check_and_migrate_movable_pages()
is called to migrate pages out of zones which should not contain any
longterm pinned pages.

When migration succeeds all pages will have been unpinned so pinning
needs to be retried. Migration can also fail, in which case the pages
will also have been unpinned but the operation should not be retried. If
all pages are in the correct zone nothing will be unpinned and no retry
is required.

The logic in check_and_migrate_movable_pages() tracks unnecessary state
and the return codes for each case are difficult to follow. Refactor the
code to clean this up. No behaviour change is intended.

Changes for v6:

- Return -EAGAIN instead of 0 from migrate_longterm_unpinnable_pages()
when all pages successfully migrated.
- Rebased on top of mm-unstable to incorporate a fix from Shigeru
Yoshida.

Changes for v5:

- Minor formatting fixes.
- Improved comments from John.
- Cleaned up return code logic in check_and_migrate_movable_pages()

Changes for v4:

- Use folio directly instead of page based functions and folio->page.

Changes for v3:

- Improved comments (thanks John).
- Fix up inconsistent int/long/unsigned long.
- Rename (migrate|collect)_unpinnable_pages
to (migrate|collect)_longterm_unpinnable_pages() as suggested by David.

Changes for v2:

- Split into different functions as suggested by John.
- Made error handling more conventional as requested by Jason.

Originally posted as "mm/gup.c: Simplify and fix
check_and_migrate_movable_pages() return codes"[1].

Changes from that version:

- Restore the original isolation failure behaviour and don't fail the
pup. Instead retry indefinitely.
- Unpin all pages on retry or failure rather than just failure.
