Subject: [PATCH v3 mm-unstable] mm/memory_hotplug: cleanup return value handing in do_migrate_range()

Return value mechanism of do_migrate_range() is not very simple, while
no caller of the function checks the return value.  Make the function
return nothing to be more simple, and cleanup related unnecessary code.

Changes from v2

- Squash patches into one
- Add Acked-by from David and Reviewed-by from Baolin

Andrew, I saw you already added v2 of this patch into mm-unstable[1], but David
asked me to squash the two patches into this one.  Could you please replace
already merged patches with this one?
