mm/page_alloc: some renames to clarify alloc_flags scopes
It's pretty confusing that: - The slowpath and fastpath have a totally distinct set of alloc_flags. - gfp_to_alloc_flags() sounds generic but it only influences the slowpath. Rename some variables to highlight which alloc_flags are fastpath-specific. Rename gfp_to_alloc_flags() to highlight that it's slowpath-specific. gfp_to_alloc_flags_cma() and gfp_to_alloc_flags_nonblocking() currently have perfectly harmless names, but to keep the naming consistent also rename those to the alloc_flags_*() pattern (which already exists for alloc_flags_nofragment()).
