Rokudo Yan 76303d3fab mm, compaction: move high_pfn to the for loop scope 
commit 74e21484e4 upstream.

In fast_isolate_freepages, high_pfn will be used if a prefered one (ie
PFN >= low_fn) not found.

But the high_pfn is not reset before searching an free area, so when it
was used as freepage, it may from another free area searched before.  As
a result move_freelist_head(freelist, freepage) will have unexpected
behavior (eg corrupt the MOVABLE freelist)

The issue was reported on an smart phone product with 6GB ram and 3GB
zram as swap device.

This patch fixes the issue by reset high_pfn before searching each free
area, which ensure freepage and freelist match when call
move_freelist_head in fast_isolate_freepages().

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
