[PATCH v5 3/4] mm: Mark pages allocated through vmalloc

[Matthew Wilcox]

From: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Use a bit in page_type to mark pages which have been allocated through
vmalloc.  This can be helpful when debugging crashdumps or analysing
memory fragmentation.  Add a KPF flag to report these pages to userspace
and update page-types.c to interpret that flag.
