[RFC PATCH 09/10] Add page_is_buddy for PG_buddy

[HATAYAMA Daisuke <d.hatayama@jp.fujitsu.com>]

On kernels from v2.6.18 to v2.6.37, buddy page is marked by the
PG_buddy flag.

  kernel version     | PG_buddy
  ------------------ +---------------------------------
  v2.6.17 to v2.6.26 | 19
  v2.6.27 to v2.6.37 | 19 if CONFIG_PAGEFLAGS_EXTEND=y
                     | 18 otherwise

Note for hard coding: it's possible to determine whether
CONFIG_PAGEFLAGS_EXTEND=yes or not by looking at error_status array
defined in mm/memory-failure.c, for example.
