[PATCH RFC V2 2/9] mm/migrate: revive MIGRATE_NO_COPY in migrate_mode.
From: Shivank Garg
Date: Wed Mar 19 2025 - 15:25:49 EST
From: Zi Yan <ziy@xxxxxxxxxx>
It is a preparation patch. The added MIGRATE_NO_COPY will be used by the
following patches to implement batched page copy functions by skipping
folio copy process in __migrate_folio() and copying folios in one shot
at the end.
