For the fix, I think that we should still respect migrate_mode because
users may prefer migration success over blocking.

Okay, yeah it looks better since it seems I missed the fallback
part in migrate_pages_sync().

Let me send the next version to follow your advice, thanks.

The author seems to have disappeared.  Should we merge this as-is or
does someone want to take a look at developing a v2?

I've replied your email last week, I'm not sure why it has not
been addressed?

The patch in your queue is already v2? No?

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
