Subject: mm, compaction: remove unnecessary zone parameter in some instances
A zone parameter is passed into a number of top-level compaction functions
despite the fact that it's already in cache_control. This is harmless but
it did need an audit to check if zone actually ever changes meaningfully.
This patches removes the parameter in a number of top-level functions.
The change could be much deeper but this was enough to briefly clarify the
flow.
No functional change.
