Subject: mm/gup: do not migrate zero page

On some platforms ZERO_PAGE(0) might end-up in a movable zone.  Do not
migrate zero page in gup during longterm pinning as migration of zero page
is not allowed.

For example, in x86 QEMU with 16G of memory and kernelcore=5G parameter, I
see the following:

Boot#1: zero_pfn  0x48a8d zero_pfn zone: ZONE_DMA32
Boot#2: zero_pfn 0x20168d zero_pfn zone: ZONE_MOVABLE

On x86, empty_zero_page is declared in .bss and depending on the loader
may end up in different physical locations during boots.

Also, move is_zero_pfn() my_zero_pfn() functions under CONFIG_MMU, because
zero_pfn that they are using is declared in memory.c which is compiled
with CONFIG_MMU.

is_pinnable_page() is needed only when CONFIG_MIGRATION is set, because
without page migration all pages are pinnable, so add a stub version of
is_pinnable_page() for !CONFIG_MIGRATION case.  This also solves issues
where mm.h is included but is_zero_pfn() is not available because of
CONFIG_MMU is not set.
