[PATCH RFC 11/37] mm: migrate/mempolicy: Allocate metadata-enabled destination page

With explicit metadata page management support, it's important to know if
the source page for migration has metadata associated with it for two
reasons:

- The page allocator knows to skip metadata pages (which cannot have
metadata) when allocating the destination page.
- The associated metadata page is correctly reserved when fulfilling the
allocation for the destination page.

When choosing the destination during migration, keep track if the source
page has metadata.

The mbind() system call changes the NUMA allocation policy for the
specified memory range and nodemask. If the MPOL_MF_MOVE or
MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL flags are set, then any existing allocations that fall
within the range which don't conform to the specified policy will be
migrated. The function that allocates the destination page for migration
is new_page(), teach it too about source pages with metadata.
