From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/thp: remap_page() is only needed on anonymous THP

THP splitting's unmap_page() only sets TTU_SPLIT_FREEZE when PageAnon, and
migration entries are only inserted when TTU_MIGRATION (unused here) or
TTU_SPLIT_FREEZE is set: so it's just a waste of time for remap_page() to
search for migration entries to remove when !PageAnon.
