[ Upstream commit 42012e0436 ]
This is a preparation patch to batch the folio unmapping and moving for
non-hugetlb folios.
If we had batched the folio unmapping, all folios to be migrated would be
unmapped before copying the contents and flags of the folios. If the
folios that were passed to migrate_pages() were too many in unit of pages,
the execution of the processes would be stopped for too long time, thus
too long latency. For example, migrate_pages() syscall will call
migrate_pages() with all folios of a process. To avoid this possible
issue, in this patch, we restrict the number of pages to be migrated to be
no more than HPAGE_PMD_NR. That is, the influence is at the same level of
THP migration.

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.
