mm: compaction: update the cc->nr_migratepages when allocating or freeing the freepages
Currently we will use 'cc->nr_freepages >= cc->nr_migratepages' comparison
to ensure that enough freepages are isolated in isolate_freepages(),
however it just decreases the cc->nr_freepages without updating
cc->nr_migratepages in compaction_alloc(), which will waste more CPU
cycles and cause too many freepages to be isolated.
So we should also update the cc->nr_migratepages when allocating or
freeing the freepages to avoid isolating excess freepages. And I can see
fewer free pages are scanned and isolated when running thpcompact on my
Arm64 server:
k6.7 k6.7_patched
Ops Compaction pages isolated 120692036.00 118160797.00
Ops Compaction migrate scanned 131210329.00 154093268.00
Ops Compaction free scanned 1090587971.00 1080632536.00
Ops Compact scan efficiency 12.03 14.26
Moreover, I did not see an obvious latency improvements, this is likely
because isolating freepages is not the bottleneck in the thpcompact test
case.
