do_migrate_pages is not the proper layer to check signals. Because the
loop only isolates pages and that is not expensive. The most expensive
part is deeper down in the migration core. We wait for page lock or
writeback and that can take a long. None of that is killable wait which
is a larger surgery but something that we should consider should there
be any need to address this.
