When BUG_ON check for THP migration entry, the exsiting code only check thp_migration_supported case, but not for !thp_migration_supported case. To make the BUG_ON check consistent, we need catch both cases. Move the BUG_ON check one step eariler, because if the bug happen we should know it instead of depend on FOLL_MIGRATION been used by caller. Because pmdval instead of *pmd is read by the is_pmd_migration_entry() check, the existing code don't help to avoid useless locking within pmd_migration_entry_wait(), so remove that check.
