Since commit a49bd4d71637 ("mm, numa: rework do_pages_move"),
the semantic of move_pages() was changed to return the number of
non-migrated pages (failed to migration) and the call would be aborted
immediately if migrate_pages() returns positive value.  But it didn't
report the number of pages that we even haven't attempted to migrate.
So, fix it by including non-attempted pages in the return value.

The patch is based off Wei Yang's cleanup patchset:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20200122011647.13636-1-richardw.yang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/T/#t
Can you please redo this so it is applicable to current mainline?  That
will make it more easily backportable and this fix is higher priority
than a set of cleanups.

Sure.
