mm, page_alloc: use masks and shifts when converting GFP flags to migrate types
This patch redefines which GFP bits are used for specifying mobility and the order of the migrate types. Once redefined it's possible to convert GFP flags to a migrate type with a simple mask and shift. The only downside is that readers of OOM kill messages and allocation failures may have been used to the existing values but scripts/gfp-translate will help.
