If THP is failed to migrate due to -ENOSYS or -ENOMEM case, the THP will
be split, and the subpages of fail-to-migrate THP will be tried to migrate
again, so we should not account the retry counter in the second loop, since
we already accounted 'nr_thp_failed' in the first loop.
Moreover we also do not need retry 10 times for -EAGAIN case for the subpages
of fail-to-migrate THP in the second loop, since we already regarded the
THP as migration failure, and save some migration time (for the worst case,
will try 512 * 10 times) according to previous discussion [1].

I have tested this patch, and it works as expected.

Please this patch is based on my patchset that hasn't been merged. I
can add it as the last patch of my migrate_pages failure path fixing
patchset if you don't object.
