Subject[PATCH 6/8] mm/migrate.c: handle same node and add failure in the same way
Date
When page is not queued for migration, there are two possible cases:

* page already on the target node
* failed to add to migration queue

Current code handle them differently, this leads to a behavior
inconsistency.

Usually for each page's status, we just do store for once. While for the
page already on the target node, we might store the node information for
twice:

* once when we found the page is on the target node
* second when moving the pages to target node successfully after above
action

The reason is even we don't add the page to pagelist, but store_status()
does store in a range which still contains the page.

This patch handles these two cases in the same way to reduce this
inconsistency and also make the code a little easier to read.
