Subject: mm: migrate: remove PageTransHuge check in numamigrate_isolate_page()
Date: Wed, 13 Sep 2023 17:51:24 +0800

Patch series "mm: migrate: more folio conversion and unification", v3.

Convert more migrate functions to use a folio, it is also a preparation
for large folio migration support when balancing numa.


This patch (of 8):

The assert VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(order && !PageTransHuge(page), page) is not very
useful,

   1) for a tail/base page, order = 0, for a head page, the order > 0 &&
      PageTransHuge() is true
   2) there is a PageCompound() check and only base page is handled in
      do_numa_page(), and do_huge_pmd_numa_page() only handle PMD-mapped
      THP
   3) even though the page is a tail page, isolate_lru_page() will post
      a warning, and fail to isolate the page
   4) if large folio/pte-mapped THP migration supported in the future,
      we could migrate the entire folio if numa fault on a tail page

so just remove the check.
