migrate_to_node() is intended to migrate a page from one source node to
a target node.
Today, migrate_to_node() could end up migrating to any node, not only
the target node. This is because the page migration allocator,
new_node_page() does not pass __GFP_THISNODE to
alloc_pages_exact_node(). This causes the target node to be preferred
but allows fallback to any other node in order of affinity.
Prevent this by allocating with __GFP_THISNODE. If memory is not
available, -ENOMEM will be returned as appropriate.
