mm: compaction: update pageblock skip when first migration candidate is not at the start

Browse source

isolate_migratepages_block should mark a pageblock as skip if scanning
started on an aligned pageblock boundary but it only updates the skip flag
if the first migration candidate is also aligned.  Tracing during a
compaction stress load (mmtests: workload-usemem-stress-numa-compact) that
many pageblocks are not marked skip causing excessive scanning of blocks
that had been recently checked.  Update pageblock skip based on
"valid_page" which is set if scanning started on a pageblock boundary.
