If THP or hugetlbfs page migration isn't supported, unmap_and_move()
or unmap_and_move_huge_page() will return -ENOSYS. For THP, splitting
will be tried, but if splitting doesn't succeed, the THP will be left
in "from" list wrongly. If some other pages are retried, the THP
migration failure will counted again. This is fixed via moving the
failure THP from "from" to "ret_pages".
Another issue of the original code is that the unsupported failure
processing isn't consistent between THP and hugetlbfs page. Make them
consistent in this patch to make the code easier to be understood too.

I must be missing something, but migrate_pages() calls unmap_and_move_huge_page()
with ret being ret_pages, so
list_move_tail(&hpage->lru, ret) == list_move_tail(&page->lru, &ret_pages)
Yet, you say "This is fixed via moving the failure THP from "from" to "ret_pages"".
/me confused.

To make it consistent between hugetlb page and THP/normal page, I have
revised the unmap_and_move_huge_page() via deleting the list_move_tail()
there for ENOSYS. After that, we move the hugetlb page and THP/normal
page in the same way in migrate_pages().
