Previously, the cleanup code is buried in a corner of a much more
complex code path.  So the comments are necessary.  Now, it is an
explicit and simple code path.  And, the rule is clear, every folio list
needs to be cleaned up before return: folios, split_folios, then
ret_folios.  And we have done this here and there in the series.

Yes.  It's a good idea to explain that.  And now the rule to call
migrate_pages_batch() has been changed.  If mode != MIGRATE_ASYNC, the
length of "from" must be <= 1.  I will add a VM_WARN_ON() for that at
the beginning of migrate_pages_batch().  And I would rather to add the
comments to the header of migrate_pages().  Other callers of the
function needs to follow that rule too.

Thank you very much for review!
