This continues by:
inc_node_page_state(page, NR_ISOLATED_ANON + page_is_file_cache(page));


I think it now needs to use mod_node_page_state() with
hpage_nr_pages(page) otherwise the counter will underflow after the
migration?

Hmm, PageTransHuge() has VM_BUG_ON() for tail pages, while this code is
written so that it can encounter a tail page and skip the rest of the
compound page properly. So I would be worried about this.

Also PageTransHuge() is basically just a PageHead() so for each
non-hugetlbfs compound page this will assume it's a THP, while correctly
it should reach the __PageMovable() || PageLRU(page) tests below.

So probably this should do something like.

if (PageHuge(page) || PageTransCompound(page)) {
...
   if (PageHuge(page) && !hpage_migration_supported)) return page.
   if (!PageLRU(head) && !__PageMovable(head)) return page
...
