Subject: [PATCH v3 2/9] mm/hugetlb: Don't wait for migration entry during follow page

That's what the code does with !hugetlb pages, so we should logically do
the same for hugetlb, so migration entry will also be treated as no page.

This is probably also the last piece in follow_page code that may sleep,
the last one should be removed in cf994dd8af27 ("mm/gup: remove
FOLL_MIGRATION", 2022-11-16).
