Subject: [PATCH] vmscan,migrate: fix page count imbalance on node stats when
 demoting pages

When numa balancing is enabled with demotion, vmscan will call
migrate_pages when shrinking LRUs.  migrate_pages will decrement the
the node's isolated page count, leading to an imbalanced count when
invoked from (MG)LRU code.

The result is dmesg output like such:

$ cat /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh

[77383.088417] vmstat_refresh: nr_isolated_anon -103212
[77383.088417] vmstat_refresh: nr_isolated_file -899642

This negative value may impact compaction and reclaim throttling.

The following path produces the decrement:

shrink_folio_list
  demote_folio_list
    migrate_pages
      migrate_pages_batch
        migrate_folio_move
          migrate_folio_done
            mod_node_page_state(-ve) <- decrement

This path happens for SUCCESSFUL migrations, not failures.  Typically
callers to migrate_pages are required to handle putback/accounting for
failures, but this is already handled in the shrink code.

When accounting for migrations, instead do not decrement the count when
the migration reason is MR_DEMOTION.  As of v6.11, this demotion logic
is the only source of MR_DEMOTION.
