So below code used in most places seem a boolean success/failure thing, which can confuse people whether the isolation is successful. if (folio_isolate_lru(folio)) continue; Moreover the page isolation functions only return 0 or -EBUSY, and most users did not care about the negative error except for few users, thus we can convert all page isolation functions to return a boolean value, which can remove the confusion to make code more clear. No functional changes intended in this patch series. Changes from v2: - Add a new boolean 'isolated' variable for functions that require the negative error value. - Keep the same return value logic in do_migrate_range(), that means it will return -EBUSY if all pages are failed to be isolated. - Collect Acked-by and Reviewed-by tags. Thanks David and SeongJae. Changes from v1: - Convert all isolation functions to return bool.
