[PATCH] mm: migrate: handle freed page at the first place

[Yang Shi <yang.shi@linux.alibaba.com>]

When doing migration if the freed page is met, we just return without
migrating it since it is pointless to migrate a freed page.  But, the
current code did two things before handling freed page:

1. Return -ENOMEM if the page is THP and THP migration is not supported.
2. Allocate target page unconditionally.

Both makes not too much sense.  If we handle freed page at the first place
we don't have to worry about allocating/freeing target page and split
THP at all.

For example (worst case) if we are trying to migrate a freed THP without
THP migration supported, the migrate_pages() would just split the THP then
retry to migrate base pages one by one by pointless allocating and freeing
pages, this is just waste of time.

I didn't run into any actual problem with the current code (or I may
just not notice it yet), it was found by visual inspection.
