migrate_vma_pages() may still clear MIGRATE_PFN_MIGRATE on pages which
are not able to be migrated. Drivers may safely copy data prior to
calling migrate_vma_pages() however a remote mapping must not be
established until after migrate_vma_pages() has returned as the
migration could still fail.

UV_PAGE_IN_in both copies and maps the data page, therefore it should
only be called after checking the results of migrate_vma_pages().

Did you actually hit this scenario with secure VMs where a UV-paged-in
page was later found to be not migratable?

This patch certainly looks like the problem, that has been hurting
us for a while.  Let me run this patch through my SVM tests.  Looks very
promising.

BTW: The code does a similar thing while paging out.  It pages out from the
UV, and then does the migration. Is there a bug there aswell?

No, this was found by inspection. I have no way of testing this but we had a 
similar issue in Nouveau and I think you would have a similar issue here 
although it might be hard to hit.

migrate_vma_pages() will fail a page migration if a CPU thread has raced and 
established a non-zero page PTE for the address. See migrate_vma_insert_page() 
for the implementation. It will also fail if something else has taken a 
reference on the page after calling migrate_vma_setup(), but that is less 
likely as any existing pages will have been isolated.

As specified the migrate_pages_vma() API can fail to migrate device private 
pages. However the fix was less obvious to me, and in practice I don't think it 
will ever fail for device private pages as you don't have the same races to 
establish the page and device private pages can't be pinned.

It might be worth adding some kind of warning though in case this ever 
changes.

Though this patch did not solve the specific problem, I am running into,
my tests did not expose any regression.
