[PATCH v3 2/7] mm/page_owner: add MR_NEVER to enum migrate_reason and use it for last_migrate_reason
From: Ye Liu
Date: Mon Jun 29 2026 - 21:54:05 EST
The last_migrate_reason field uses -1 as a sentinel value to mean "no
migration has happened". Replace the four bare -1 occurrences by
adding a proper MR_NEVER member to enum migrate_reason, defining a
corresponding "never_migrated" string in the MIGRATE_REASON trace
macro, and removing the local MIGRATE_REASON_NONE define.
No functional change.
