mm/page_alloc: don't corrupt pcppage_migratetype
When placing pages on a pcp list, migratetype values over MIGRATE_PCPTYPES get added to the MIGRATE_MOVABLE pcp list. However, the actual migratetype is preserved in the page and should not be changed to MIGRATE_MOVABLE or the page may end up on the wrong free_list. The impact is that HIGHATOMIC or CMA pages getting bulk freed from the PCP lists could potentially end up on the wrong buddy list. There are various consequences but minimally NR_FREE_CMA_PAGES accounting could get screwed up.
