mm: add a signature in struct page

This is needed by the page_pool to avoid recycling a page not allocated via page_pool. The page->signature field is aliased to page->lru.next and page->compound_head, but it can't be set by mistake because the signature value is a bad pointer, and can't trigger a false positive in PageTail() because the last bit is 0.
