Is this supposed to prevent migration of pages being used for
restrictedmem/shmem backend?
Yes, my bad. I expected it to prevent migration, but it is not true.
Maybe add a comment that these pages are not movable and we don't want
to place them into movable pageblocks (including CMA and ZONE_MOVABLE).
That's the primary purpose of the GFP mask here.
