Isn't there exists few unnecessary parenthesis? IMHO, it makes me hard to 
read the code.

How about below code, instead?

+             if (vma_migratable(vma) && !is_vm_hugetlb_page(vma) &&
+                     vma->vm_flags & (VM_READ | VM_EXEC | VM_WRITE) &&
+                     !vma->vm_flags & VM_MIXEDMAP)


Thanks,
SeongJae Park.
