[PATCH] compaction: fix isolate_migratepages_block() for THP=n

From: Kirill A. Shutemov
Date: Mon Apr 27 2015 - 07:26:57 EST


PageTrans* helpers are always-false if THP is disabled compile-time.
It means the fucntion will fail to detect hugetlb pages in this case.

Let's use PageCompound() instead. With small tweak to how we calculate
next low_pfn it will make function ready to see tail pages.
