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().

It implies freeze in try_to_migrate() and no freeze in try_to_unmap(). I think we need some comments here, above try_to_migrate(), and above try_to_unmap() to clarify the implication.

I think we need a comment here about why anonymous pages need try_to_migrate() and others need try_to_unmap(). Thanks. — Best Regards, Yan Zi
