Documentation/vm/page_migration: update reference to numa_maps + fix download URI
With man-pages-3.07, the numa_maps documentation home is now proc(5), so the reference in Documentation/vm/page_migration needs updating. (Cliff/Lee are removing numa_maps.5 from the numactl package.) Also, the download location for the numactl package changed a while back. This patch fixes both things, as well as a typo (provided-->provides).
