Subject: mm: introduce a common interface for balloon pages mobility fix

It's useful to keep memory defragmented so that all high-order page
allocations have a chance to succeed, not simply transparent hugepages. 
Thus, allow balloon compaction for any system with memory compaction
enabled, which is the defconfig.
