    mm/compaction.c: avoid premature range skip in isolate_migratepages_range · 6ea41c0c

     ("mm, compaction: move pageblock checks up from
    isolate_migratepages_range()") commonizes isolate_migratepages variants
    and make them use isolate_migratepages_block().
    
    isolate_migratepages_block() could stop the execution when enough pages
    are isolated, but, there is no code in isolate_migratepages_range() to
    handle this case.  In the result, even if isolate_migratepages_block()
    returns prematurely without checking all pages in the range,
    
    isolate_migratepages_block() is called repeately on the following
    pageblock and some pages in the previous range are skipped to check.
    Then, CMA is failed frequently due to this fact.
    
    To fix this problem, this patch let isolate_migratepages_range() know
    the situation that enough pages are isolated and stop the isolation in
    that case.
    
    Note that isolate_migratepages() has no such problem, because, it always
    stops the isolation after just one call of isolate_migratepages_block().
