Subject: [RFC PATCH 4/5] mm/page_alloc: add fixed migratetype pageblock infrastructure

From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@....com>

Following patch will support permanent migratetype pageblock by
kernel boot parameter. For preparation, this patch adds infrastructure
for it. Once fixed, migratetype cannot be changed anymore until power off.
