Add routines to support allocation of large order zone device folios

When large folios are used, the existing page_free() callback in
pgmap is called when the folio is freed, this is true for both
PAGE_SIZE and higher order pages.
Zone device private large folios do not support deferred split and
scan like normal THP folios.

You missed my comments of this patch in v3.
Hi, David
Looks I missed your comments, just checked those were largely about alignment
and
integrating the code for DEVICE_COHERENT and DEVICE_PRIVATE cases into similar
looking
bits for zone device folio free and code-alignment. I'll take a look and update
as needed.
Yes, and the confusing folio->mapping = NULL that I cannot connect to THP
support.
I can remove that, let me reunify those bits, seems relatively straight forward
BTW, I was wondering when we invalidate folio_test_anon() by clearing
folio->mapping int he current code flow?
I mean, this must happen at some point when freeing device folios.
