nr_failed was missing the large folio splits from migrate_pages_batch() and can cause a mismatch between migrate_pages() return value and the number of not migrated pages, i.e., when the return value of migrate_pages() is 0, there are still pages left in the from page list. It will happen when a non-PMD THP large folio fails to migrate due to -ENOMEM and is split successfully but not all the split pages are not migrated, migrate_pages_batch() would return non-zero, but astats.nr_thp_split = 0. nr_failed would be 0 and returned to the caller of migrate_pages(), but the not migrated pages are left in the from page list without being added back to LRU lists. Fix it by adding a new nr_split counter for large folio splits and adding it to nr_failed in migrate_page_sync() after migrate_pages_batch() is done.

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.
