Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mempolicy: do not try to queue pages from
 !vma_migratable()

Maybe I miss some point, but I don't see a reason why we try to queue
pages from non migratable VMAs.

The only case when we can queue pages from such VMA is MPOL_MF_STRICT
plus MPOL_MF_MOVE or MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL for VMA which has pages on LRU,
but gfp mask is not sutable for migaration (see mapping_gfp_mask() check
in vma_migratable()). That's looks like a bug to me.

Let's filter out non-migratable vma at start of queue_pages_test_walk()
and go to queue_pages_pte_range() only if MPOL_MF_MOVE or
MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL flag is set.
