Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) 6bc56a4d85 mm: add vma_alloc_zeroed_movable_folio()
Replace alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable().  The main difference is
returning a folio containing a single page instead of returning the page,
but take the opportunity to rename the function to match other allocation
functions a little better and rewrite the documentation to place more
emphasis on the zeroing rather than the highmem aspect.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
