This patchset aims at increase of compaction success rate. Changes are
related to compaction finish condition and freepage isolation condition.
From these changes, I did stress highalloc test in mmtests with nonmovable
order 7 allocation configuration, and success rate (%) at phase 1 are,
Base Patch-1 Patch-3 Patch-4
55.00 57.00 62.67 64.00
And, compaction success rate (%) on same test are,
Base Patch-1 Patch-3 Patch-4
18.47 28.94 35.13 41.50
This patchset is based on my tracepoint update on compaction.
