In commit fd4a7ac32918 ("mm: migrate: try again if THP split is failed due to page refcnt"), if the THP splitting fails due to page reference count, we will retry to improve migration successful rate. But the failed splitting is counted as migration failure and migration retry, which will cause duplicated failure counting. So, in this patch, this is fixed via undoing the failure counting if we decide to retry. The patch is tested via failure injection.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
