This function should probably be 'static'; it has no users outside of
this file.

These two fields are still updated without any kind of
schedstat_enabled() guard. We probably shouldn't refuse to print them
if we're maintaining these counters, right?

Ditto for se.nr_migrations. It has no schedstat_enabled() wrapper.

You dropped the 'inline' from this function. Since there is only one
caller, I'm guessing that was unintentional?
