Similar to the move_pages system call, instead of taking a pid and
list of virtual addresses, this system call takes a list of physical
addresses.

Because there is no task to validate the memory policy against, each
page needs to be interrogated to determine whether the migration is
valid, and all tasks that map it need to be interrogated.

This is accomplished in via a rmap_walk on the folio containing
the page, and an interrogation of all tasks that map the page (by
way of each task's vma).

Each page must be interrogated individually, which should be
considered when using this to migrate shared regions.

The remaining logic is the same as the move_pages syscall. Some
minor changes to do_pages_move are made (to check whether an
mm_struct is passed) in order to re-use the existing migration code.

Hi Gregory

A few comments inline.

Thanks,

Why not just tidy up the !folio case more directly as if
it's not we only get to the first condition as rmctxt.found == false
anyway, so this is the same as.

	if (!folio)

	rmap_walk(foil, &rwc);

With above changes this condition can go.
