[merged mm-stable] migrate_pages-fix-failure-counting-for-thp-splitting.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: migrate_pages(): fix failure counting for THP splitting
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     migrate_pages-fix-failure-counting-for-thp-splitting.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: migrate_pages(): fix failure counting for THP splitting
Date: Wed, 17 Aug 2022 16:14:06 +0800

If THP is failed to be migrated, it may be split and retry.  But after
splitting, the head page will be left in "from" list, although THP
migration failure has been counted already.  If the head page is failed to
be migrated too, the failure will be counted twice incorrectly.  So this
is fixed in this patch via moving the head page of THP after splitting to
"thp_split_pages" too.
