mm/hugetlb: make hugetlb migration callback CMA aware



new_non_cma_page() in gup.c requires to allocate the new page that is not
on the CMA area.  new_non_cma_page() implements it by using allocation
scope APIs.

However, there is a work-around for hugetlb.  Normal hugetlb page
allocation API for migration is alloc_huge_page_nodemask().  It consists
of two steps.  First is dequeing from the pool.  Second is, if there is no
available page on the queue, allocating by using the page allocator.

new_non_cma_page() can't use this API since first step (deque) isn't aware
of scope API to exclude CMA area.  So, new_non_cma_page() exports hugetlb
internal function for the second step, alloc_migrate_huge_page(), to
global scope and uses it directly.  This is suboptimal since hugetlb pages
on the queue cannot be utilized.

This patch tries to fix this situation by making the deque function on
hugetlb CMA aware.  In the deque function, CMA memory is skipped if
PF_MEMALLOC_NOCMA flag is found.
