Subject: [PATCH v2] mm: cleanup some useless code

From: Kaitao Cheng <[email protected]>

Compound pages handling in mem_cgroup_migrate is more convoluted than
necessary. The state is duplicated in compound variable and the same
could be achieved by PageTransHuge check which is trivial and
hpage_nr_pages is already PageTransHuge aware.

It is much simpler to just use hpage_nr_pages for nr_pages and replace
the local variable by PageTransHuge check directly

Can you please write a more descriptive commit title? Seeing this in the commit
history tells the reader nothing, "code" could mean anything from a state
machine to a boolean, and "cleanup" could mean anything from some complex
refactoring to something trivial like this, and right now I have to look and
see the individual commit. This patch is really just deduplication of effort.

Perhaps:

mm, memcg: Don't check PageTransHuge before calling hpage_nr_pages

Heh, calling it "much" simpler seems a bit excessive. I mean, the code is just
as readable in both cases, but if it's going to go in, then that's fine. Any
merge conflict should be trivial enough to fix.

I'm indifferent to this patch, but after the title change:
