Add the buddy system interface for address range mirroring feature.
Allocate mirrored pages in MIGRATE_MIRROR list. If there is no mirrored pages

GFP_KERNEL itself should imply mirror, I think.
Hi Kame,
How about like this: #define GFP_KERNEL (__GFP_WAIT | __GFP_IO | __GFP_FS |
__GFP_MIRROR) ?
Hm.... it cannot cover GFP_ATOMIC at el.
I guess, mirrored memory should be allocated if !__GFP_HIGHMEM or !__GFP_MOVABLE
