Subject: [PATCH v1 6/8] mm/util: Add flag to track device private pages in page snapshots

A future change will remove device private pages from the physical
address space. This will mean that device private pages no longer have
normal pfns and must be handled separately.

Add a new flag PAGE_SNAPSHOT_DEVICE_PRIVATE to track when the pfn of a
page snapshot is a device private page.
