mm/compaction: disallow high-order page for migration target
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.
