[PATCH RFC 11/29] mm/migrate: move movable_ops page handling out of move_to_new_folio()

David Hildenbrand david at redhat.com
Thu Jun 19 03:39:54 AEST 2025


Let's move that handling directly into migrate_folio_move(), so we can
simplify move_to_new_folio(). While at it, fixup the documentation a
bit.

Note that unmap_and_move_huge_page() does not care, because it only
deals with actual folios. (we only support migration of
individual movable_ops pages)
