Migration tries up to 10 times to migrate pages that return -EAGAIN until it
gives up. If some pages fail all retries, they are counted towards the number
of failed pages that migrate_pages() returns. They should also be counted in
the /proc/vmstat pgmigrate_fail and in the mm_migrate_pages tracepoint.
