I have a similar patch lined up in my clean ups (that I am yet to send out), but
the patch was more along the lines of
nr = folio_nr_pages(folio);
+ if (nr > npages - i) {
+ migrate_device_folio_unlock(folio);
+ src_pfns[i] = 0;
+ continue;
+ }
+
This prevents partial selection, migrate_device_unmap() does take npages as an
argument. We could change the increment of i here to skip past the entire folio.
I am OK with this change as well
