From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@xxxxxxx>
commit 7d348b9ea64db0a315d777ce7d4b06697f946503 upstream.
Purpose of compaction is to get a high order page. Currently, if we
find high-order page while searching migration target page, we break it
to order-0 pages and use them as migration target. It is contrary to
purpose of compaction, so disallow high-order page to be used for
migration target.
Additionally, clean-up logic in suitable_migration_target() to simplify
the code. There is no functional changes from this clean-up.
