Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Improve the migration stats

Hi,

According to talk with Zi Yan [1], this patch set changes the return
value of migrate_pages() to avoid returning a number which is larger
than the number of pages the users tried to migrate by move_pages() syscall.
Also fix the hugetlb migration stats and migration stats in
trace_mm_compaction_migratepages(). Please help to review. Thanks.

Changes from RFC:
 - Increase nr_thp_failed when THP is split, no matter how many subpages are
 migrated successfully.
 - Add reviewed-by tags.
