[PATCH] mm: migrate: One less atomic operation

[Jacobo Giralt]

migrate_page_move_mapping drops a reference from the
old page after unfreezing its counter. Both operations
can be merged into a single atomic operation by
directly unfreezing to one less reference.

The same applies to migrate_huge_page_move_mapping.
