Support transparent huge page migration to ZONE_DEVICE private memory.
A new flag (MIGRATE_PFN_COMPOUND) is added to the input PFN array to
indicate the huge page was fully mapped by the CPU.
Export prep_compound_page() so that device drivers can create huge
device private pages after calling memremap_pages().

Why do you hide this code behind thp_migration_supported()? It seems that you just need
pmd swap entry not pmd migration entry. Also the condition is not consistent with the code
in __handle_mm_fault(), in which you handle is_device_private_entry() directly without
checking thp_migration_support().

Good point, I think "else if (thp_migration_supported())" should be
"else if (is_pmd_migration_entry(orig_pmd))" since if the PMD *is*
a device private or migration entry, then it should be handled and the
VM_BUG_ON() should be that thp_migration_supported() is true
(or maybe remove the VM_BUG_ON?).

Do we need to support split_huge_pmd() if a page is migrated to device? Any new code
needed in split_huge_pmd()?

I was thinking that any CPU usage of the device private page would cause it to be
migrated back to system memory as a whole PMD/PUD page but I'll double check.
At least there should be a check that the page isn't a device private page.
