Subject: [Patch v5 0/4] cleanup on do_pages_move()

The logic in do_pages_move() is a little mess for audience to read and has
some potential error on handling the return value. Especially there are
three calls on do_move_pages_to_node() and store_status() with almost the
same form.

This patch set tries to make the code a little friendly for audience by
consolidate the calls.

v5:
: rebase on top of latest upstream, "linux/pipe_fs_i.h: fix kernel-doc
warnings after @wait was split"
v4:
* rephrase changelog based on suggestion from David Hildenbrand
* trivial change on code style and comment
v3:
* rebase on top of Yang Shi's fix "mm: move_pages: report the number of
non-attempted pages"
v2:
* remove some unnecessary cleanup


Wei Yang (4):
mm/migrate.c: no need to check for i > start in do_pages_move()
mm/migrate.c: wrap do_move_pages_to_node() and store_status()
mm/migrate.c: check pagelist in move_pages_and_store_status()
mm/migrate.c: unify "not queued for migration" handling in
do_pages_move()

Subject: [Patch v5 2/4] mm/migrate.c: wrap do_move_pages_to_node() and store_status()

Usually, do_move_pages_to_node() and store_status() are used in
combination. We have three similar call sites.

Let's provide a wrapper for both function calls -
move_pages_and_store_status - to make the calling code easier to
maintain and fix (as noted by Yang Shi, the return value handling of
do_move_pages_to_node() has a flaw).

Subject: [Patch v5 3/4] mm/migrate.c: check pagelist in move_pages_and_store_status()

When pagelist is empty, it is not necessary to do the move and store.
Also it consolidate the empty list check in one place.

Subject: [Patch v5 4/4] mm/migrate.c: unify "not queued for migration" handling in do_pages_move()

It can currently happen that we store the status of a page twice:
* Once we detect that it is already on the target node
* Once we moved a bunch of pages, and a page that's already on the
target node is contained in the current interval.

Let's simplify the code and always call do_move_pages_to_node() in
case we did not queue a page for migration. Note that pages that are
already on the target node are not added to the pagelist and are,
therefore, ignored by do_move_pages_to_node() - there is no functional
change.

The status of such a page is now only stored once.

Subject: [Patch v5 1/4] mm/migrate.c: no need to check for i > start in do_pages_move()

At this point, we always have i >= start. If i == start, store_status()
will return 0. So we can drop the check for i > start.

Sounds this patch set is not picked up yet.

Any thing else I need to do?
