Extend the usefulness of arch_alloc_page() by adding the gfp_flags parameter.Although the change here is harmless in itself, it will definitely benefit from some additional context explaining the rationale, taking into account why-how arch_alloc_page() got added particularly for s390 platform and how it's going to be used in the present proposal.
arm64 will use it to reserve tag storage if the caller requested a tagged
page. Right now that means that __GFP_ZEROTAGS is set in the gfp mask, but
I'll rename it to __GFP_TAGGED in patch #18 ("arm64: mte: Rename
__GFP_ZEROTAGS to __GFP_TAGGED") [1].
