I hit the VM_BUG_ON(!list_empty(&cc->migratepages)) in compact_zone(); and
if DEBUG_VM were off, then pages would be lost on a local list.
Our convention is that if migrate_pages() reports complete success (0),
then the migratepages list will be empty; but if it reports an error or
some pages remaining, then its caller must putback_movable_pages().
There's a new case in which migrate_pages() has been reporting complete
success, but returning with pages left on the migratepages list: when
migrate_pages_batch() successfully split a folio on the deferred list, but
then the "Failure isn't counted" call does not dispose of them all.
Since that block is expecting the large folio to have been counted as 1
failure already, and since the return code is later adjusted to success
whenever the returned list is found empty, the simple way to fix this
safely is to count splitting the deferred folio as "a failure".

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 reStructuredText 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.
