The migrate_pages system call has an assigned number on all architectures
except ARM. When it got added initially in commit d80ade7b32 ("ARM:
Fix warning: #warning syscall migrate_pages not implemented"), it was
intentionally left out based on the observation that there are no 32-bit
ARM NUMA systems.
However, there are now arm64 NUMA machines that can in theory run 32-bit
kernels (actually enabling NUMA there would require additional work)
as well as 32-bit user space on 64-bit kernels, so that argument is no
longer very strong.
Assigning the number lets us use the system call on 64-bit kernels as well
as providing a more consistent set of syscalls across architectures.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
