I'll go through he remainder of the patchset this week.

While skimming over patch #2, I was wondering whether
"page_to_migration_pfn()" would better fit "migration_pfn_to_page".

... and I was wondering why that code deals with pages instead of folios.

E.g.,

	page = folio_page(folio, 0);
	mpfn[i] = migrate_pfn_from_page(page);

Should just be

	mpfn[i] = folio_to_migration_pfn(folio);

Right?
