mm/migrate.c: optimize migrate_vma_pages() mmu notifier

When migrating a zero page or pte_none() anonymous page to device private
memory, migrate_vma_setup() will initialize the src[] array with a NULL
PFN.  This lets the device driver allocate device private memory and clear
it instead of DMAing a page of zeros over the device bus.

Since the source page didn't exist at the time, no struct page was locked
nor a migration PTE inserted into the CPU page tables.  The actual PTE
insertion happens in migrate_vma_pages() when it tries to insert the
device private struct page PTE into the CPU page tables.
migrate_vma_pages() has to call the mmu notifiers again since another
device could fault on the same page before the page table locks are
acquired.

Allow device drivers to optimize the invalidation similar to
migrate_vma_setup() by calling mmu_notifier_range_init() which sets struct
mmu_notifier_range event type to MMU_NOTIFY_MIGRATE and the
migrate_pgmap_owner field.
