Other than adding some TEXT_FOR_MOVABLE, an addition to TEXTS_FOR_ZONES() and

Look for special handling of ZONE_DMA32 and you will find what you are
looking for. In particular ZONE_MOVABLE needs to be considered for
node_page_state calculations.

Ok, pretty clear. I've some additional work to do there. Thanks.
