[PATCH 1/4] mm/rmap: fix comments left over from recent changes

From: Hugh Dickins
Date: Wed Jul 07 2021 - 16:08:16 EST


Parallel developments in mm/rmap.c have left behind some out-of-date
comments: try_to_migrate_one() also accepts TTU_SYNC (already commented
in try_to_migrate() itself), and try_to_migrate() returns nothing at all.

TTU_SPLIT_FREEZE has just been deleted, so reword the comment about it in
mm/huge_memory.c; and TTU_IGNORE_ACCESS was removed in 5.11, so delete
the "recently referenced" comment from try_to_unmap_one() (once upon a
time the comment was near the removed codeblock, but they drifted apart).
