[PATCH v7 1/4] mm/page_owner: add print_mode filter

[Zhen Ni <zhen.ni@easystack.cn>]

Add a print_mode filter to page_owner that allows users to choose between
printing stack traces, stack handles, or both, providing flexibility for
different debugging and analysis scenarios.

The filter provides three modes via page_owner:
- Writing "mode=stack" prints stack traces for each page (default)
- Writing "mode=handle" prints only the handle number
- Writing "mode=stack_handle" prints both stack traces and handles

The default stack mode maintains backward compatibility with existing
usage, displaying complete stack traces for each page allocation.

The handle mode dramatically reduces log size and improves performance by
showing only the handle number instead of the full stack trace. Testing
shows handle mode reduces output size by ~66% (84MB vs 244MB) and
improves read performance by ~4.4x compared to full stack output. The
mapping from handles to actual stack traces can be obtained via the
show_stacks_handles interface.

The stack_handle mode prints both stack traces and handles, making it
easier to identify pages with the same allocation pattern by comparing
handle numbers instead of comparing large stack traces.

Example usage:
  # Using the page_owner_filter tool (recommended)
  ./page_owner_filter -m stack          # Print only stack traces (default)
  ./page_owner_filter -m handle         # Print only handles
  ./page_owner_filter -m stack_handle   # Print both stack and handles

Sample output (handle mode):
  Page allocated via order 0, migratetype Unmovable, gfp_mask 0x1100ca,
  pid 1, tgid 1 (systemd), ts 123456789 ns
  PFN 0x1000 type Unmovable Block 1 type Unmovable
  Flags 0x3fffe800000084(referenced|lru|active|private|node=0|zone=1)
  handle: 17432583
  ...

This implementation uses per-file-descriptor filter state stored in
file->private_data, allowing each opener to have independent filter
configuration.

Changes in v7:
- per-file-descriptor implementation

Changes in v6:
- Remove unnecessary braces in if/else statement (coding style)
- Use stack array (char kbuf[33]) instead of kmalloc for input buffer

Changes in v5:
- No code changes

Changes in v4:
- Change from numeric (0/1) to string-based interface ("full_stack"/"stack_handle")
- Merge infrastructure patch into this patch

Changes in v3:
- No code changes

Changes in v2:
- Renamed from 'compact mode' to 'print_mode' for better clarity
- Use enum values (0=full_stack, 1=stack_handle) instead of boolean
- Update debugfs filename from 'compact' to 'print_mode'
