[PATCH 2/5] mm: page_alloc: trace type pollution from compaction capturing

[Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org>]

When the page allocator places pages of a certain migratetype into
blocks of another type, it has lasting effects on the ability to
compact and defragment down the line. For improving placement and
compaction, visibility into such events is crucial.

The most common case, allocator fallbacks, is already annotated, but
compaction capturing is also allowed to grab pages of a different
type. Extend the tracepoint to cover this case.
