mm: optimization on page allocation when CMA enabled

According to current CMA utilization policy, an alloc_pages(GFP_USER)
could 'steal' UNMOVABLE & RECLAIMABLE page blocks via the help of CMA(pass
zone_watermark_ok by counting CMA in but use U&R in rmqueue), which could
lead to following alloc_pages(GFP_KERNEL) fail.  Solving this by
introducing second watermark checking for GFP_MOVABLE, which could have
the allocation use CMA when proper.
