This patch introduces the sys_page_migrate() system call:

sys_page_migrate(pid, va_start, va_end, count, old_nodes, new_nodes);

are you really sure you want to expose nodes to userspace via an ABI
this solid and never changing? To me that feels somewhat like too much
of an internal thing to expose that will mean that those internals are
now set in stone due to the interface...

They're already exposed through mbind/set_mempolicy/get_mempolicy and sysfs
of course.
