CVE-2025-21861: mm/migrate_device: don't add folio to be freed to LRU in migrate_device_finalize()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm/migratedevice: don't add folio to be freed to LRU in migratedevicefinalize()

If migration succeeded, we called foliomigrateflags()-memcgroupmigrate() to migrate the memcg from the old to the new folio. This will set memcgdata of the old folio to 0.

Similarly, if migration failed, memcgdata of the dst folio is left unset.

If we call folioputbacklru() on such folios (memcgdata == 0), we will add the folio to be freed to the LRU, making memcg code unhappy. Running the hmm selftests:

Likely, nothing else goes wrong: putting the last folio reference will remove the folio from the LRU again. So besides memcg complaining, adding the folio to be freed to the LRU is just an unnecessary step.

The new flow resembles what we have in migratefoliomove(): add the dst to the lru, rem ---truncated---
