If a page is added in pagevec, its ref count increases one, remove
the page from pagevec decreases one. Page migration requires the
page is not referrened by others except page mapping. Before
migrating a page, we should try to drain the page from pagevec in
case the page is in it, however, folio_test_lru() is not sufficient
to tell whether the page is in pagevec or not, if the page is in
pagevec, the migration will fail.

Remove the condition and drain lru once to ensure the page is not
referrenced by pagevec.

This looks sane to me and seems a simple way to fix.

You should rebase your code on the latest mm-unstable branch, as collect_longterm_unpinnable_pages() in the upstream has been replaced with collect_longterm_unpinnable_folios().
Ok, thanks
