[PATCH v2] mm/migrate: Continue to migrate for non-hugetlb folios

From: Chen Wandun
Date: Sat Jan 28 2023 - 22:39:28 EST


migrate_hugetlbs returns -ENOMEM when no enough hugetlb,
however there may be free non-hugetlb folios available,
so continue to migrate for non-hugetlb folios.

Nowdays the only negtive return value of migrate_hugetlbs
is -ENOMEM, keep compatible for coming negtive return value
instead of ignore return value.
