mm/migrate: fix do_pages_move for compat pointers
do_pages_move does not handle compat pointers for the page list. correctly. Add in_compat_syscall check and appropriate get_user fetch when iterating the page list. It makes the syscall in compat mode (32-bit userspace, 64-bit kernel) work the same way as the native 32-bit syscall again, restoring the behavior before my broken commit 5b1b561ba73c ("mm: simplify compat_sys_move_pages"). More specifically, my patch moved the parsing of the 'pages' array from the main entry point into do_pages_stat(), which left the syscall working correctly for the 'stat' operation (nodes = NULL), while the 'move' operation (nodes != NULL) is now missing the conversion and interprets 'pages' as an array of 64-bit pointers instead of the intended 32-bit userspace pointers. It is possible that nobody noticed this bug because the few applications that actually call move_pages are unlikely to run in compat mode because of their large memory requirements, but this clearly fixes a user-visible regression and should have been caught by ltp.
