Subject: [PATCH 5.2 72/85] mm/z3fold.c: remove z3fold_migration trylock

From: Henry Burns <henryburns@...gle.com>

commit be03074c9af25d06cf8e9ebddfcd284c0bf7f947 upstream.

z3fold_page_migrate() will never succeed because it attempts to acquire
a lock that has already been taken by migrate.c in __unmap_and_move().

  __unmap_and_move() migrate.c
    trylock_page(oldpage)
    move_to_new_page(oldpage_newpage)
      a_ops->migrate_page(oldpage, newpage)
        z3fold_page_migrate(oldpage, newpage)
          trylock_page(oldpage)
