Subject: [PATCH] mm/migrate: correct thp migration stats.

From: Zi Yan <[email protected]>

PageTransHuge returns true for both thp and hugetlb, so thp stats was
counting both thp and hugetlb migrations. Exclude hugetlb migration by
setting is_thp variable right.

Fixes: 1a5bae25e3cf ("mm/vmstat: add events for THP migration without split")
