Joonsoo Kim b7d349c741 mm/thp: don't count ZONE_MOVABLE as the target for freepage reserving
There was a regression report for "mm/cma: manage the memory of the CMA
area by using the ZONE_MOVABLE" [1] and I think that it is related to
this problem.  CMA patchset makes the system use one more zone
(ZONE_MOVABLE) and then increases min_free_kbytes.  It reduces usable
memory and it could cause regression.

ZONE_MOVABLE only has movable pages so we don't need to keep enough
freepages to avoid or deal with fragmentation.  So, don't count it.

This changes min_free_kbytes and thus min_watermark greatly if
ZONE_MOVABLE is used.  It will make the user uses more memory.

System:
  22GB ram, fakenuma, 2 nodes. 5 zones are used.

Before:
  min_free_kbytes: 112640

  zone_info (min_watermark):
  Node 0, zone      DMA
          min      19
  Node 0, zone    DMA32
          min      3778
  Node 0, zone   Normal
          min      10191
  Node 0, zone  Movable
          min      0
  Node 0, zone   Device
          min      0
  Node 1, zone      DMA
          min      0
  Node 1, zone    DMA32
          min      0
  Node 1, zone   Normal
          min      14043
  Node 1, zone  Movable
          min      127
  Node 1, zone   Device
          min      0

After:
  min_free_kbytes: 90112

  zone_info (min_watermark):
  Node 0, zone      DMA
          min      15
  Node 0, zone    DMA32
          min      3022
  Node 0, zone   Normal
          min      8152
  Node 0, zone  Movable
          min      0
  Node 0, zone   Device
          min      0
  Node 1, zone      DMA
          min      0
  Node 1, zone    DMA32
          min      0
  Node 1, zone   Normal
          min      11234
  Node 1, zone  Movable
          min      102
  Node 1, zone   Device
          min      0
