H A Dbuffer.cdiff 4983da07f1e2e8dc81cb9d640fbf35b899cdbdf2 Tue Mar 14 21:50:19 CST 2006 Christoph Lameter <clameter@engr.sgi.com> [PATCH] page migration: fail if page is in a vma flagged VM_LOCKED

page migration currently simply retries a couple of times if try_to_unmap()
fails without inspecting the return code.

However, SWAP_FAIL indicates that the page is in a vma that has the
VM_LOCKED flag set (if ignore_refs ==1). We can check for that return code
and avoid retrying the migration.

migrate_page_remove_references() now needs to return a reason why the
failure occured. So switch migrate_page_remove_references to use -Exx
style error messages.
