[PATCH -V2] migrate_pages_batch: simplify retrying and failure counting of large folios

From: Huang Ying
Date: Tue May 09 2023 - 23:19:15 EST


After recent changes to the retrying and failure counting in
migrate_pages_batch(), it was found that it's unnecessary to count
retrying and failure for normal, large, and THP folios separately.
Because we don't use retrying and failure number of large folios
directly. So, in this patch, we simplified retrying and failure
counting of large folios via counting retrying and failure of normal
and large folios together. This results in the reduced line number.

Previously, in migrate_pages_batch we need to track whether the source
folio is large/THP before splitting. So is_large is used to cache
folio_test_large() result. Now, we don't need that variable any more
because we don't count retrying and failure of large folios (only
counting that of THP folios). So, in this patch, is_large is removed
to simplify the code.

This is just code cleanup, no functionality changes are expected.
