mm: migrate: make demotion knob depend on migration

The memory demotion needs to call migrate_pages() to do the jobs.  And
it is controlled by a knob, however, the knob doesn't depend on
CONFIG_MIGRATION.  The knob could be truned on even though MIGRATION is
disabled, this will not cause any crash since migrate_pages() would just
return -ENOSYS.  But it is definitely not optimal to go through demotion
path then retry regular swap every time.

And it doesn't make too much sense to have the knob visible to the users
when !MIGRATION.  Move the related code from mempolicy.[h|c] to
migrate.[h|c].
