In unmap_and_move(), if the new THP cannot be allocated, -ENOMEM will be
returned, and migrate_pages() will try to split the THP unless "reason" is
MR_NUMA_MISPLACED (that is, nosplit == true).  But when nosplit == true,
the THP migration failure will not be counted.

This is incorrect, so in this patch, the THP migration failure will be
counted for -ENOMEM regardless of nosplit is true or false.  The nr_failed
counting isn't fixed because it's not used.  Added some comments for it
per Baolin's suggestion.
