mm, compaction: use free lists to quickly locate a migration target 

Similar to the migration scanner, this patch uses the free lists to
quickly locate a migration target.  The search is different in that
lower orders will be searched for a suitable high PFN if necessary but
the search is still bound.  This is justified on the grounds that the
free scanner typically scans linearly much more than the migration
scanner.

If a free page is found, it is isolated and compaction continues if
enough pages were isolated.  For SYNC* scanning, the full pageblock is
scanned for any remaining free pages so that is can be marked for
skipping in the near future.

The impact on latency is variable but the search is optimistic and
sensitive to the exact system state.  Success rates are similar but the
major impact is to the rate of scanning

The free scan rates are reduced by 50%.  The 2-socket reductions for the
free scanner are more dramatic which is a likely reflection that the
machine has more memory.
