In the fast_find_migrateblock(), It iterate freelist to find
proper pageblock. But there are two edge cases. First, if the page
we found is equal to cc->migrate_pfn, it is considered that we
didn't found suitable pageblock. Second, if the loop was terminated
because order is less than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER, it could
be considered that we found suitable one.

a migration source")
