mm/page_alloc: don't corrupt pcppage_migratetype

When placing pages on a pcp list, migratetype values over
MIGRATE_PCPTYPES get added to the MIGRATE_MOVABLE pcp list.

However, the actual migratetype is preserved in the page and should
not be changed to MIGRATE_MOVABLE or the page may end up on the wrong
free_list.

The impact is that HIGHATOMIC or CMA pages getting bulk freed from the
PCP lists could potentially end up on the wrong buddy list.  There are
various consequences but minimally NR_FREE_CMA_PAGES accounting could
get screwed up.
