Thanks for the bug report. With your allnoconfig test build I
see that I didn't pay enough attention to the scope of
CONFIG_MIGRATION, and that do_mbind is outside it. I guess
do_mbind prefers to fail more elaborately when there isn't
migration support than do_migrate_pages does. Rather than just
returning ENOSYS it actually attempts to migrate pages with
a NULL returning get_new_page function, which eventually
forces do_mbind to return ENOMEM.
I'll send Andrea a fix for his tree.
