[PATCH] mm: Add is_migrate_cma_page

Code such as hardened user copy[1] needs a way to tell if a
page is CMA or not. Add is_migrate_cma_page in a similar way
to is_migrate_isolate_page.

Here's an explicit patch, slightly different than what I posted before. It can
be kept separate or folded in as needed.
