mm, compaction: require only min watermarks for non-costly orders

mm, compaction: require only min watermarks for non-costly orders

The __compaction_suitable() function checks the low watermark plus a
compact_gap() gap to decide if there's enough free memory to perform
compaction.  Then __isolate_free_page uses low watermark check to decide
if particular free page can be isolated.  In the latter case, using low
watermark is needlessly pessimistic, as the free page isolations are only
temporary.  For __compaction_suitable() the higher watermark makes sense
for high-order allocations where more freepages increase the chance of
success, and we can typically fail with some order-0 fallback when the
system is struggling to reach that watermark.  But for low-order
allocation, forming the page should not be that hard.  So using low
watermark here might just prevent compaction from even trying, and
eventually lead to OOM killer even if we are above min watermarks.

So after this patch, we use min watermark for non-costly orders in
__compaction_suitable(), and for all orders in __isolate_free_page().
