mm: add kernel_move_pages() helper, move compat syscall to mm/migrate.c
Move compat_sys_move_pages() to mm/migrate.c and make it call a newly introduced helper -- kernel_move_pages() -- instead of the syscall. This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls. On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined.
