Pages pinned in memory through extra refcounts can not be migrated.
Currently as isolate_migratepages_block() scans pages for
compaction, it skips any pinned anonymous pages. All non-migratable
pages should be skipped and not just the anonymous pinned pages.
This patch adds a check for extra refcounts on a page to determine
if the page can be migrated.  This was seen as a real issue on a
customer workload where a large number of pages were pinned by vfio
on the host and any attempts to allocate hugepages resulted in
significant amount of cpu time spent in either direct compaction or
in kcompactd scanning vfio pinned pages over and over again that can
not be migrated.

v3:
	- Account for extra ref added by get_page_unless_zero() earlier
	  in isolate_migratepages_block() (Suggested by Huang, Ying)
	- Clean up computation of extra refs to be consistent 
	  (Suggested by Huang, Ying)

v2:
	- Update comments in the code (Suggested by Andrew)
	- Use PagePrivate() instead of page_has_private() (Suggested
	  by Matthew)
	- Pass mapping to page_has_extrarefs() (Suggested by Matthew)
	- Use page_ref_count() (Suggested by Matthew)
	- Rename is_pinned_page() to reflect its function more
	  accurately (Suggested by Matthew)
