mm: soft-offline: use migrate_pages() instead of migrate_huge_page()
Currently migrate_huge_page() takes a pointer to a hugepage to be migrated as an argument, instead of taking a pointer to the list of hugepages to be migrated. This behavior was introduced in commit 189ebff28 ("hugetlb: simplify migrate_huge_page()"), and was OK because until now hugepage migration is enabled only for soft-offlining which migrates only one hugepage in a single call. But the situation will change in the later patches in this series which enable other users of page migration to support hugepage migration. They can kick migration for both of normal pages and hugepages in a single call, so we need to go back to original implementation which uses linked lists to collect the hugepages to be migrated. With this patch, soft_offline_huge_page() switches to use migrate_pages(), and migrate_huge_page() is not used any more. So let's remove it.
