mm/rmap: split migration into its own function
Migration is currently implemented as a mode of operation for
try_to_unmap_one() generally specified by passing the TTU_MIGRATION flag
or in the case of splitting a huge anonymous page TTU_SPLIT_FREEZE.
However it does not have much in common with the rest of the unmap
functionality of try_to_unmap_one() and thus splitting it into a separate
function reduces the complexity of try_to_unmap_one() making it more
readable.
Several simplifications can also be made in try_to_migrate_one() based on
the following observations:
- All users of TTU_MIGRATION also set TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK.
- No users of TTU_MIGRATION ever set TTU_IGNORE_HWPOISON.
- No users of TTU_MIGRATION ever set TTU_BATCH_FLUSH.
TTU_SPLIT_FREEZE is a special case of migration used when splitting an
anonymous page. This is most easily dealt with by calling the correct
function from unmap_page() in mm/huge_memory.c - either try_to_migrate()
for PageAnon or try_to_unmap().
