  Return value mechanism of do_migrate_range() is not very simple, while
no caller of the function checks the return value.  Make the function
return nothing to be more simple.

I think this patch should also stop initializing ret = 0 inside that 
function.

With that

Nit: while we are at it, can we also remove the "TODO" comment in 
offline_pages()?

ret = scan_movable_pages(pfn, end_pfn, &pfn);
if (!ret) {
	/*
	 * TODO: fatal migration failures should bail
	 * out
	 */
	do_migrate_range(pfn, end_pfn);
}

The second patch does it, and I read your reply to the patch asking squashing
it in this one.  I will send the new version soon.

As David mentioned we're just still unclear what issues are fatal[1], I was
thinking we didn't forgive the future work, so left the comment.  If anyone has
different opinion or I'm getting something wrong, please let me know.
