mm: compaction: fix endless looping over same migrate block

Browse Source 
During stress testing, the following situation was observed:

     70 root      39  19       0      0      0 R 100.0   0.0 959:29.92 khugepaged

Tracing shows isolate_migratepages_block() endlessly looping over the
first block in the DMA zone:

       hugealloc-310936  [001] ..... 237297.415718: mm_compaction_finished: node=0 zone=DMA      order=9 ret=no_suitable_page

       hugealloc-310936  [001] ..... 237297.415718: mm_compaction_isolate_migratepages: range=(0x1 ~ 0x400) nr_scanned=513 nr_taken=0
       hugealloc-310936  [001] ..... 237297.415718: mm_compaction_finished: node=0 zone=DMA      order=9 ret=no_suitable_page
       hugealloc-310936  [001] ..... 237297.415718: mm_compaction_isolate_migratepages: range=(0x1 ~ 0x400) nr_scanned=513 nr_taken=0

The problem is that the functions tries to test and set the skip bit once
on the block, to avoid skipping on its own skip-set, using
pageblock_aligned() on the pfn as a test.  But because this is the DMA
zone which starts at pfn 1, this is never true for the first block, and
the skip bit isn't set or tested at all.  As a result,
fast_find_migrateblock() returns the same pageblock over and over.

If the pfn isn't pageblock-aligned, also check if it's the start of the
zone to ensure test-and-set-exactly-once on unaligned ranges.

Thanks to Vlastimil Babka for the help in debugging this.
