Subject: [RFC PATCH v0 1/2] migrate: implement migrate_misplaced_folio_batch

From: Gregory Price <gourry@...rry.net>

A common operation in tiering is to migrate multiple pages at once.
The migrate_misplaced_folio function requires one call for each
individual folio.  Expose a batch-variant of the same call for use
when doing batch migrations.
