From: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
We're already using a union of many fields here, so stop abusing the
_map_count and make page_type its own field. That implies renaming some
of the machinery that creates PageBuddy, PageBalloon and PageKmemcg;
bring back the PG_buddy, PG_balloon and PG_kmemcg names. As Kirill
pointed out, it would be nice to be able to set more than one flag
in this field, so change the definitions to allow this.

v2: Fixed a few places that still referred to the old MAPCOUNT_VALUEs.
Incorporated Kirill's suggestion to allow more than one flag.
