Subject: mm/page_owner: add MR_NEVER to enum migrate_reason and use it for last_migrate_reason
Date: Wed, 1 Jul 2026 09:22:28 +0800
The last_migrate_reason field uses -1 as a sentinel value to mean "no
migration has happened". Replace the four bare -1 occurrences by adding a
proper MR_NEVER member to enum migrate_reason, defining a corresponding
"never_migrated" string in the MIGRATE_REASON trace macro, and updating
the GDB page_owner script to use MR_NEVER instead of the hardcoded -1 so
that lx-dump-page-owner does not incorrectly report unmigrated pages as
migrated.
No functional change.
