mm: fs: invalidate BH LRU during page migration
Pages containing buffer_heads that are in one of the per-CPU buffer_head LRU caches will be pinned and thus cannot be migrated. This can prevent CMA allocations from succeeding, which are often used on platforms with co-processors (such as a DSP) that can only use physically contiguous memory. It can also prevent memory hot-unplugging from succeeding, which involves migrating at least MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE bytes of memory, which ranges from 8 MiB to 1 GiB based on the architecture in use. Correspondingly, invalidate the BH LRU caches before a migration starts and stop any buffer_head from being cached in the LRU caches, until migration has finished.
