pgmigrate_success        46738962
pgmigrate_fail          135649772
compact_migrate_scanned 309726659
compact_free_scanned   9715615169
compact_isolated        229689596
compact_stall 4777
compact_fail 3068
compact_success 1709
compact_daemon_wake 207834

The migration failures are quite enormous. Very quick analysis of the
trace seems to confirm that these are mostly "real", as opposed to result
of failure to isolate free pages for migration targets, although the free
scanner spent a lot of time:

> grep "nr_failed=32" -B1 trace_pipe.log | grep isolate_freepages.*nr_taken=0 | wc -l
3246

So is it one of the cases where fs is unable to migrate dirty/writeback pages?
