mm/compaction: fix misbehaviors of fast_find_migrateblock()
In the fast_find_migrateblock(), it iterates ocer the freelist to find the proper pageblock. But there are some misbehaviors. First, if the page we found is equal to cc->migrate_pfn, it is considered that we didn't find a suitable pageblock. Secondly, if the loop was terminated because order is less than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER, it could be considered that we found a suitable one. Thirdly, if the skip bit is set on the page block and we goto continue, it doesn't check nr_scanned. Fourthly, if the page block's skip bit is set, it checks that page block is the last of list, which is unnecessary.
