[PATCH 1/4] mm/migrate: correct return value of migrate_pages()

From: Joonsoo Kim
Date: Fri Dec 06 2013 - 03:39:46 EST


migrate_pages() should return number of pages not migrated or error code.
When unmap_and_move return -EAGAIN, outer loop is re-execution without
initialising nr_failed. This makes nr_failed over-counted.

So this patch correct it by initialising nr_failed in outer loop.
