[PATCH 4] mm: fix possible incorrect return value of move_pages() syscall

From: Joonsoo Kim
Date: Mon Jul 16 2012 - 13:16:09 EST


move_pages() syscall may return success in case that
do_move_page_to_node_array return positive value which means migration failed.
This patch changes return value of do_move_page_to_node_array
for not returning positive value. It can fix the problem.
