Subject: mem-hotplug: use GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE and alloc from next node in alloc_migrate_target()
alloc_migrate_target() is called from migrate_pages(), and the page is
always from user space, so we can add __GFP_HIGHMEM directly.
Second, when we offline a node, the new page should alloced from other
nodes instead of the current node, because re-migrate is a waste of time.
