Subject: [v2 PATCH 0/2] mm: mempolicy: fix mbind()'s inconsistent behavior for unmovable pages


Changelog
v2: * Fixed the inconsistent behavior by not aborting !vma_migratable()
      immediately by a separate patch (patch 1/2), and this is also the
      preparation for patch 2/2. For the details please see the commit
      log.  Per Vlastimil.
    * Not abort immediately if unmovable page is met. This should handle
      non-LRU movable pages and temporary off-LRU pages more friendly.
      Per Vlastimil and Michal Hocko.

Yang Shi (2):
      mm: mempolicy: make the behavior consistent when MPOL_MF_MOVE* and MPOL_MF_STRICT were specified
      mm: mempolicy: handle vma with unmovable pages mapped correctly in mbind
