mm/page-owner: use gfp_nested_mask() instead of open coded masking

Browse Source 
The page-owner tracking code records stack traces during page allocation. 
To do this, it must do a memory allocation for the stack information from
inside an existing memory allocation context.  This internal allocation
must obey the high level caller allocation constraints to avoid generating
false positive warnings that have nothing to do with the code they are
instrumenting/tracking (e.g.  through lockdep reclaim state tracking)

We also don't want recording stack traces to deplete emergency memory
reserves - debug code is useless if it creates new issues that can't be
replicated when the debug code is disabled.

Switch the stack tracking allocation masking to use gfp_nested_mask() to
address these issues.  gfp_nested_mask() naturally strips GFP_ZONEMASK,
too, which greatly simplifies this code.
