Subject: [PATCH 5/7] mm/page_alloc: separate interface to set/get migratetype of freepage

Currently, we use (set/get)_freepage_migratetype in two use cases.
One is to know the buddy list where this page will be linked and
the other is to know the buddy list where this page is linked now.

But, we should deal these two use cases differently, because information
isn't sufficient for the second use case and properly setting this
information needs some overhead. Whenever the page is merged or split
in buddy, this information isn't properly re-assigned and it may not
have enough information for the second use case.

This patch just separates interface, so there is no functional change.
Following patch will do further steps about this issue.
