mm: migrate: one less atomic operation

Browse source 
migrate_page_move_mapping() drops a reference from the old page after
unfreezing its counter.  Both operations can be merged into a single
atomic operation by directly unfreezing to one less reference.

The same applies to migrate_huge_page_move_mapping().
