Can you explain why? If it is the case, MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE cannot fall back
to MIGRATE_MOVABLE? And MIGRATE_MOVABLE cannot fall back to MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE?
And MIGRATE_RECLAIMABLE cannot fall back to MIGRATE_MOVABLE?

You sent a patch: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230203100132.1627787-1-yajun.deng@xxxxxxxxx/T/#u, why not squash this one into that? Why do
we need two separate small patches working on the same code?

Thanks.
