94723aafb9 mm: unclutter THP migration
THP migration is hacked into the generic migration with rather
surprising semantic.  The migration allocation callback is supposed to
check whether the THP can be migrated at once and if that is not the
case then it allocates a simple page to migrate.  unmap_and_move then
fixes that up by spliting the THP into small pages while moving the head
page to the newly allocated order-0 page.  Remaning pages are moved to
the LRU list by split_huge_page.  The same happens if the THP allocation
fails.  This is really ugly and error prone [1].

I also believe that split_huge_page to the LRU lists is inherently wrong
because all tail pages are not migrated.  Some callers will just work
around that by retrying (e.g.  memory hotplug).  There are other pfn
walkers which are simply broken though.  e.g. madvise_inject_error will
migrate head and then advances next pfn by the huge page size.
do_move_page_to_node_array, queue_pages_range (migrate_pages, mbind),
will simply split the THP before migration if the THP migration is not
supported then falls back to single page migration but it doesn't handle
tail pages if the THP migration path is not able to allocate a fresh THP
so we end up with ENOMEM and fail the whole migration which is a
questionable behavior.  Page compaction doesn't try to migrate large
pages so it should be immune.

This patch tries to unclutter the situation by moving the special THP
handling up to the migrate_pages layer where it actually belongs.  We
simply split the THP page into the existing list if unmap_and_move fails
with ENOMEM and retry.  So we will _always_ migrate all THP subpages and
specific migrate_pages users do not have to deal with this case in a
special way.

666feb21a0 mm, migrate: remove reason argument from new_page_t
No allocation callback is using this argument anymore.  new_page_node
used to use this parameter to convey node_id resp.  migration error up
to move_pages code (do_move_page_to_node_array).  The error status never
made it into the final status field and we have a better way to
communicate node id to the status field now.  All other allocation
callbacks simply ignored the argument so we can drop it finally.

310253514b mm/migrate: rename migration reason MR_CMA to MR_CONTIG_RANGE
alloc_contig_range() initiates compaction and eventual migration for the
purpose of either CMA or HugeTLB allocations.  At present, the reason
code remains the same MR_CMA for either of these cases.  Let's make it
MR_CONTIG_RANGE which will appropriately reflect the reason code in both
these cases.

40a899ed16 mm: migrate: fix an incorrect call of prep_transhuge_page()
In https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/20/411, Andrea reported that during
memory hotplug/hot remove prep_transhuge_page() is called incorrectly on
non-THP pages for migration, when THP is on but THP migration is not
enabled.  This leads to a bad state of target pages for migration.

By inspecting the code, if called on a non-THP, prep_transhuge_page()
will

 1) change the value of the mapping of (page + 2), since it is used for
    THP deferred list;

 2) change the lru value of (page + 1), since it is used for THP's dtor.

Both can lead to data corruption of these two pages.

Andrea said:
 "Pragmatically and from the point of view of the memory_hotplug subsys,
  the effect is a kernel crash when pages are being migrated during a
  memory hot remove offline and migration target pages are found in a
  bad state"

This patch fixes it by only calling prep_transhuge_page() when we are
certain that the target page is THP.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

8315ada7f0 mm/migrate: allow migrate_vma() to alloc new page on empty entry
This allows callers of migrate_vma() to allocate new page for empty CPU
page table entry (pte_none or back by zero page).  This is only for
anonymous memory and it won't allow new page to be instanced if the
userfaultfd is armed.

This is useful to device driver that want to migrate a range of virtual
address and would rather allocate new memory than having to fault later
on.

8763cb45ab mm/migrate: new memory migration helper for use with device memory
This patch add a new memory migration helpers, which migrate memory
backing a range of virtual address of a process to different memory (which
can be allocated through special allocator).  It differs from numa
migration by working on a range of virtual address and thus by doing
migration in chunk that can be large enough to use DMA engine or special
copy offloading engine.

Expected users are any one with heterogeneous memory where different
memory have different characteristics (latency, bandwidth, ...).  As an
example IBM platform with CAPI bus can make use of this feature to migrate
between regular memory and CAPI device memory.  New CPU architecture with
a pool of high performance memory not manage as cache but presented as
regular memory (while being faster and with lower latency than DDR) will
also be prime user of this patch.

Migration to private device memory will be useful for device that have
large pool of such like GPU, NVidia plans to use HMM for that.

2916ecc0f9 mm/migrate: new migrate mode MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY
Introduce a new migration mode that allow to offload the copy to a device
DMA engine.  This changes the workflow of migration and not all
address_space migratepage callback can support this.

This is intended to be use by migrate_vma() which itself is use for thing
like HMM (see include/linux/hmm.h).

No additional per-filesystem migratepage testing is needed.  I disables
MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY in all problematic migratepage() callback and i
added comment in those to explain why (part of this patch).  The commit
message is unclear it should say that any callback that wish to support
this new mode need to be aware of the difference in the migration flow
from other mode.

Some of these callbacks do extra locking while copying (aio, zsmalloc,
balloon, ...) and for DMA to be effective you want to copy multiple
pages in one DMA operations.  But in the problematic case you can not
easily hold the extra lock accross multiple call to this callback.

Usual flow is:

For each page {
 1 - lock page
 2 - call migratepage() callback
 3 - (extra locking in some migratepage() callback)
 4 - migrate page state (freeze refcount, update page cache, buffer
     head, ...)
 5 - copy page
 6 - (unlock any extra lock of migratepage() callback)
 7 - return from migratepage() callback
 8 - unlock page
}

The new mode MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY:
 1 - lock multiple pages
For each page {
 2 - call migratepage() callback
 3 - abort in all problematic migratepage() callback
 4 - migrate page state (freeze refcount, update page cache, buffer
     head, ...)
} // finished all calls to migratepage() callback
 5 - DMA copy multiple pages
 6 - unlock all the pages

To support MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY in the problematic case we would need a
new callback migratepages() (for instance) that deals with multiple
pages in one transaction.

Because the problematic cases are not important for current usage I did
not wanted to complexify this patchset even more for no good reason.

0f55685627 mm, migration: do not trigger OOM killer when migrating memory
Page migration (for memory hotplug, soft_offline_page or mbind) needs to
allocate a new memory.  This can trigger an oom killer if the target
memory is depleated.  Although quite unlikely, still possible,
especially for the memory hotplug (offlining of memoery).

Up to now we didn't really have reasonable means to back off.
__GFP_NORETRY can fail just too easily and __GFP_THISNODE sticks to a
single node and that is not suitable for all callers.

But now that we have __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL we should use it.  It is
preferable to fail the migration than disrupt the system by killing some
processes.

3e59fcb0e8 hugetlb: add support for preferred node to alloc_huge_page_nodemask
alloc_huge_page_nodemask tries to allocate from any numa node in the
allowed node mask starting from lower numa nodes.  This might lead to
filling up those low NUMA nodes while others are not used.  We can
reduce this risk by introducing a concept of the preferred node similar
to what we have in the regular page allocator.  We will start allocating
from the preferred nid and then iterate over all allowed nodes in the
zonelist order until we try them all.

This is mimicing the page allocator logic except it operates on per-node
mempools.  dequeue_huge_page_vma already does this so distill the
zonelist logic into a more generic dequeue_huge_page_nodemask and use it
in alloc_huge_page_nodemask.

This will allow us to use proper per numa distance fallback also for
alloc_huge_page_node which can use alloc_huge_page_nodemask now and we
can get rid of alloc_huge_page_node helper which doesn't have any user
anymore.

8b91323889 mm: unify new_node_page and alloc_migrate_target
Commit 394e31d2ce ("mem-hotplug: alloc new page from a nearest
neighbor node when mem-offline") has duplicated a large part of
alloc_migrate_target with some hotplug specific special casing.

To be more precise it tried to enfore the allocation from a different
node than the original page.  As a result the two function diverged in
their shared logic, e.g.  the hugetlb allocation strategy.

Let's unify the two and express different NUMA requirements by the given
nodemask.  new_node_page will simply exclude the node it doesn't care
about and alloc_migrate_target will use all the available nodes.
alloc_migrate_target will then learn to migrate hugetlb pages more
sanely and use preallocated pool when possible.

Please note that alloc_migrate_target used to call alloc_page resp.
alloc_pages_current so the memory policy of the current context which is
quite strange when we consider that it is used in the context of
alloc_contig_range which just tries to migrate pages which stand in the
way.

9e5bcd610f mm/migration: make isolate_movable_page() return int type
Patch series "HWPOISON: soft offlining for non-lru movable page", v6.

After Minchan's commit bda807d444 ("mm: migrate: support non-lru
movable page migration"), some type of non-lru page like zsmalloc and
virtio-balloon page also support migration.

Therefore, we can:

1) soft offlining no-lru movable pages, which means when memory
   corrected errors occur on a non-lru movable page, we can stop to use
   it by migrating data onto another page and disable the original
   (maybe half-broken) one.

2) enable memory hotplug for non-lru movable pages, i.e. we may offline
   blocks, which include such pages, by using non-lru page migration.

This patchset is heavily dependent on non-lru movable page migration.

This patch (of 4):

Change the return type of isolate_movable_page() from bool to int.  It
will return 0 when isolate movable page successfully, and return -EBUSY
when it isolates failed.

There is no functional change within this patch but prepare for later
patch.

It was caused by non-lru page migration which needs compaction.h but
compaction.h doesn't include any header to be standalone.

I think proper header for non-lru page migration is migrate.h rather
than compaction.h because migrate.h has already headers needed to work
non-lru page migration indirectly like isolate_mode_t, migrate_mode
MIGRATEPAGE_SUCCESS.

bda807d444 mm: migrate: support non-lru movable page migration
We have allowed migration for only LRU pages until now and it was enough
to make high-order pages.  But recently, embedded system(e.g., webOS,
android) uses lots of non-movable pages(e.g., zram, GPU memory) so we
have seen several reports about troubles of small high-order allocation.
For fixing the problem, there were several efforts (e,g,.  enhance
compaction algorithm, SLUB fallback to 0-order page, reserved memory,
vmalloc and so on) but if there are lots of non-movable pages in system,
their solutions are void in the long run.

So, this patch is to support facility to change non-movable pages with
movable.  For the feature, this patch introduces functions related to
migration to address_space_operations as well as some page flags.

If a driver want to make own pages movable, it should define three
functions which are function pointers of struct
address_space_operations.

1. bool (*isolate_page) (struct page *page, isolate_mode_t mode);

What VM expects on isolate_page function of driver is to return *true*
if driver isolates page successfully.  On returing true, VM marks the
page as PG_isolated so concurrent isolation in several CPUs skip the
page for isolation.  If a driver cannot isolate the page, it should
return *false*.

Once page is successfully isolated, VM uses page.lru fields so driver
shouldn't expect to preserve values in that fields.

2. int (*migratepage) (struct address_space *mapping,
		struct page *newpage, struct page *oldpage, enum migrate_mode);

After isolation, VM calls migratepage of driver with isolated page.  The
function of migratepage is to move content of the old page to new page
and set up fields of struct page newpage.  Keep in mind that you should
indicate to the VM the oldpage is no longer movable via
__ClearPageMovable() under page_lock if you migrated the oldpage
successfully and returns 0.  If driver cannot migrate the page at the
moment, driver can return -EAGAIN.  On -EAGAIN, VM will retry page
migration in a short time because VM interprets -EAGAIN as "temporal
migration failure".  On returning any error except -EAGAIN, VM will give
up the page migration without retrying in this time.

Driver shouldn't touch page.lru field VM using in the functions.

3. void (*putback_page)(struct page *);

If migration fails on isolated page, VM should return the isolated page
to the driver so VM calls driver's putback_page with migration failed
page.  In this function, driver should put the isolated page back to the
own data structure.

4. non-lru movable page flags

There are two page flags for supporting non-lru movable page.

* PG_movable

Driver should use the below function to make page movable under
page_lock.

	void __SetPageMovable(struct page *page, struct address_space *mapping)

It needs argument of address_space for registering migration family
functions which will be called by VM.  Exactly speaking, PG_movable is
not a real flag of struct page.  Rather than, VM reuses page->mapping's
lower bits to represent it.

	#define PAGE_MAPPING_MOVABLE 0x2
	page->mapping = page->mapping | PAGE_MAPPING_MOVABLE;

so driver shouldn't access page->mapping directly.  Instead, driver
should use page_mapping which mask off the low two bits of page->mapping
so it can get right struct address_space.

For testing of non-lru movable page, VM supports __PageMovable function.
However, it doesn't guarantee to identify non-lru movable page because
page->mapping field is unified with other variables in struct page.  As
well, if driver releases the page after isolation by VM, page->mapping
doesn't have stable value although it has PAGE_MAPPING_MOVABLE (Look at
__ClearPageMovable).  But __PageMovable is cheap to catch whether page
is LRU or non-lru movable once the page has been isolated.  Because LRU
pages never can have PAGE_MAPPING_MOVABLE in page->mapping.  It is also
good for just peeking to test non-lru movable pages before more
expensive checking with lock_page in pfn scanning to select victim.

For guaranteeing non-lru movable page, VM provides PageMovable function.
Unlike __PageMovable, PageMovable functions validates page->mapping and
mapping->a_ops->isolate_page under lock_page.  The lock_page prevents
sudden destroying of page->mapping.

Driver using __SetPageMovable should clear the flag via
__ClearMovablePage under page_lock before the releasing the page.

* PG_isolated

To prevent concurrent isolation among several CPUs, VM marks isolated
page as PG_isolated under lock_page.  So if a CPU encounters PG_isolated
non-lru movable page, it can skip it.  Driver doesn't need to manipulate
the flag because VM will set/clear it automatically.  Keep in mind that
if driver sees PG_isolated page, it means the page have been isolated by
VM so it shouldn't touch page.lru field.  PG_isolated is alias with
PG_reclaim flag so driver shouldn't use the flag for own purpose.

7cd12b4abf mm, page_owner: track and print last migrate reason
During migration, page_owner info is now copied with the rest of the
page, so the stacktrace leading to free page allocation during migration
is overwritten.  For debugging purposes, it might be however useful to
know that the page has been migrated since its initial allocation.  This
might happen many times during the lifetime for different reasons and
fully tracking this, especially with stacktraces would incur extra
memory costs.  As a compromise, store and print the migrate_reason of
the last migration that occurred to the page.  This is enough to
distinguish compaction, numa balancing etc.

Example page_owner entry after the patch:

5d83306213 mm: numa: do not dereference pmd outside of the lock during NUMA hinting fault
Automatic NUMA balancing depends on being able to protect PTEs to trap a
fault and gather reference locality information.  Very broadly speaking
it would mark PTEs as not present and use another bit to distinguish
between NUMA hinting faults and other types of faults.  It was
universally loved by everybody and caused no problems whatsoever.  That
last sentence might be a lie.

This series is very heavily based on patches from Linus and Aneesh to
replace the existing PTE/PMD NUMA helper functions with normal change
protections.  I did alter and add parts of it but I consider them
relatively minor contributions.  At their suggestion, acked-bys are in
there but I've no problem converting them to Signed-off-by if requested.

AFAIK, this has received no testing on ppc64 and I'm depending on Aneesh
for that.  I tested trinity under kvm-tool and passed and ran a few
other basic tests.  At the time of writing, only the short-lived tests
have completed but testing of V2 indicated that long-term testing had no
surprises.  In most cases I'm leaving out detail as it's not that
interesting.

specjbb single JVM: There was negligible performance difference in the
	benchmark itself for short runs. However, system activity is
	higher and interrupts are much higher over time -- possibly TLB
	flushes. Migrations are also higher. Overall, this is more overhead
	but considering the problems faced with the old approach I think
	we just have to suck it up and find another way of reducing the
	overhead.

specjbb multi JVM: Negligible performance difference to the actual benchmark
	but like the single JVM case, the system overhead is noticeably
	higher.  Again, interrupts are a major factor.

autonumabench: This was all over the place and about all that can be
	reasonably concluded is that it's different but not necessarily
	better or worse.

The NUMA pages migrated look terrible but when I looked at a graph of the
activity over time I see that the massive spike in migration activity was
during NUMA01.  This correlates with high system CPU usage and could be
simply down to bad luck but any modifications that affect that workload
would be related to scan rates and migrations, not the protection
mechanism.  For all other workloads, migration activity was comparable.

Overall, headline performance figures are comparable but the overhead is
higher, mostly in interrupts.  To some extent, higher overhead from this
approach was anticipated but not to this degree.  It's going to be
necessary to reduce this again with a separate series in the future.  It's
still worth going ahead with this series though as it's likely to avoid
constant headaches with Xen and is probably easier to maintain.

This patch (of 10):

A transhuge NUMA hinting fault may find the page is migrating and should
wait until migration completes.  The check is race-prone because the pmd
is deferenced outside of the page lock and while the race is tiny, it'll
be larger if the PMD is cleared while marking PMDs for hinting fault.
This patch closes the race.

one that call ->migrate() of another vm_ops if it exists.

d6d86c0a7f mm/balloon_compaction: redesign ballooned pages management
Sasha Levin reported KASAN splash inside isolate_migratepages_range().
Problem is in the function __is_movable_balloon_page() which tests
AS_BALLOON_MAP in page->mapping->flags.  This function has no protection
against anonymous pages.  As result it tried to check address space flags
inside struct anon_vma.

Further investigation shows more problems in current implementation:

* Special branch in __unmap_and_move() never works:
  balloon_page_movable() checks page flags and page_count.  In
  __unmap_and_move() page is locked, reference counter is elevated, thus
  balloon_page_movable() always fails.  As a result execution goes to the
  normal migration path.  virtballoon_migratepage() returns
  MIGRATEPAGE_BALLOON_SUCCESS instead of MIGRATEPAGE_SUCCESS,
  move_to_new_page() thinks this is an error code and assigns
  newpage->mapping to NULL.  Newly migrated page lose connectivity with
  balloon an all ability for further migration.

* lru_lock erroneously required in isolate_migratepages_range() for
  isolation ballooned page.  This function releases lru_lock periodically,
  this makes migration mostly impossible for some pages.

* balloon_page_dequeue have a tight race with balloon_page_isolate:
  balloon_page_isolate could be executed in parallel with dequeue between
  picking page from list and locking page_lock.  Race is rare because they
  use trylock_page() for locking.

This patch fixes all of them.

Instead of fake mapping with special flag this patch uses special state of
page->_mapcount: PAGE_BALLOON_MAPCOUNT_VALUE = -256.  Buddy allocator uses
PAGE_BUDDY_MAPCOUNT_VALUE = -128 for similar purpose.  Storing mark
directly in struct page makes everything safer and easier.

PagePrivate is used to mark pages present in page list (i.e.  not
isolated, like PageLRU for normal pages).  It replaces special rules for
reference counter and makes balloon migration similar to migration of
normal pages.  This flag is protected by page_lock together with link to
the balloon device.

1c93923cc2 include/linux/migrate.h: remove migrate_page #define
This is designed to avoid a few ifdefs in .c files but it's obnoxious
because it can cause unsuspecting "migrate_page" symbols to get turned into
"NULL".

Just nuke it and use the ifdefs.
