MPOL_MF_LAZY is not visible from userspace since 'commit a720094ded8c ("mm: mempolicy: Hide MPOL_NOOP and MPOL_MF_LAZY from userspace for now")' , but it should still skip non-migratable VMAs.
Signed-off-by: Liang Chen <liangchen.linux@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Gavin Guo <gavin.guo@canonical.com> --- We have been evaluating the enablement of MPOL_MF_LAZY again, and found this issue. And we decided to push this patch upstream no matter if we finally determine to propose re-enablement of MPOL_MF_LAZY or not. Since it can be a potential problem even if MPOL_MF_LAZY is not enabled this time.
