Why not move the get_page() into the "if (trylock_page())" instead
of calling put_page() in the else case.

I was looking at try_to_migrate_one() and looking at the differences with
the code here to insert the migration PTE and noticed that instead of
ptet_get_and_clear() it has:
	pteval = ptep_clear_flush(vma, address, pvmw.pte);

	/* Move the dirty bit to the page. Now the pte is gone. */
	if (pte_dirty(pteval))
		set_page_dirty(page);
	update_hiwater_rss(mm);

I know that is pre-existing, probably a separate patch if it is an issue.
