The comment alone is quite confusing and the variable might be better
renamed to avoid_force_lock, since there is a force variable to force
lock folio already. And the variable intends to discourage force lock
on a folio to avoid potential deadlock.

How about? Since "lock synchronously" might not be as straightforward
as wait to lock.

/*
 * We have locked some folios and are going to wait to lock this folio.
 * To avoid a potential deadlock, let's bail out and not do that. The
 * locked folios will be moved and unlocked, then we can wait to lock
 * this folio

Like I said in my last comment to this patch, migrate_pages_batch() function
deserves a detailed comment about its working flow including the error handling.
Now you only put some in the git log, which is hard to access after several code
changes later.

How about?

/*
 * migrate_pages_batch() first unmaps pages in the from as many as possible,
 * then migrates the unmapped pages. During unmap process, different situations
 * are handled differently:
 * 1. ENOSYS, unsupported large folio migration: move to ret_folios list
 * 2. ENOMEM, lower memory at the destination: migrate existing unmapped folios
 *    and stop, since existing unmapped folios have new pages allocated and can
 *    be migrated
 * 3. EDEADLOCK, to be unmapped page is locked by someone else, to avoid deadlock,
 *    we migrate existing unmapped pages and try to lock again
 * 4. MIGRATEPAGE_SUCCESS, the folios was freed under us: no action
 * 5. MIGRATEPAGE_UNMAP, unmap succeeded: set avoid_force_lock to true to avoid
 *    wait to lock a folio in the future to avoid deadlock.
 *
 * For folios unmapped but cannot be migrated, we will restore their original
 * states during cleanup stage at the end.

After rename the variable (or give it a better name) and add the comments,
you can add Reviewed-by: Zi Yan <ziy@xxxxxxxxxx>
