numa_migrate_preferred() is called periodically or when task preferred node changes. Preferred node evaluations happen once per scan sequence. If the scan completion happens just after the periodic NUMA migration, then we try to migrate to the preferred node and the preferred node might change, needing another node migration. Avoid this by checking for scan sequence completion only when checking for periodic migration.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
