Subject: mm: migrate: do not migrate HugeTLB page whose refcount is one
All pages isolated for the migration have an elevated reference count and
therefore seeing a reference count equal to 1 means that the last user of
the page has dropped the reference and the page has became unused and
there doesn't make much sense to migrate it anymore. This has been done
for regular pages and this patch does the same for hugetlb pages.
Although the likelihood of the race is rather small for hugetlb pages it
makes sense the two code paths in sync.
