mm: alloc_contig_range: allow to specify GFP mask
Currently alloc_contig_range assumes that the compaction should be done with the default GFP_KERNEL flags. This is probably right for all current uses of this interface, but may change as CMA is used in more use-cases (including being the default DMA memory allocator on some platforms). Change the function prototype, to allow for passing through the GFP mask set by upper layers. Also respect global restrictions by applying memalloc_noio_flags to the passed in flags.
