migration: search for zero instead of dup pages
virtually all dup pages are zero pages. remove
the special is_dup_page() function and use the
optimized buffer_find_nonzero_offset() function
instead.
here buffer_find_nonzero_offset() is used directly
to avoid the unnecssary additional checks in
buffer_is_zero().
raw performace gain checking 1 GByte zeroed memory
over is_dup_page() is approx. 10-12% with SSE2
and 8-10% with unsigned long arithmedtic.
