Subject: [PATCH V6 2/4] mm: Add get_user_pages_cma_migrate

This helper does a get_user_pages_fast making sure we migrate pages found in the
CMA area before taking page reference. This makes sure that we don't keep
non-movable pages (due to page reference count) in the CMA area.

This will be used by ppc64 in a later patch to avoid pinning pages in the CMA
region. ppc64 uses CMA region for allocation of hardware page table (hash page
table) and not able to migrate pages out of CMA region results in page table
allocation failures.

One case where we hit this easy is when a guest using VFIO passthrough device.
VFIO locks all the guests memory and if the guest memory is backed by CMA
region, it becomes unmovable resulting in fragmenting the CMA and possibly
preventing other guest from allocation a large enough hash page table.

NOTE: We allocate new page without using __GFP_THISNODE
