mm, compaction: defer only on COMPACT_COMPLETE
Deferred compaction is employed to avoid compacting zone where sync direct compaction has recently failed. As such, it makes sense to only defer when a full zone was scanned, which is when compact_zone returns with COMPACT_COMPLETE. It's less useful to defer when compact_zone returns with apparent success (COMPACT_PARTIAL), followed by a watermark check failure, which can happen due to parallel allocation activity. It also does not make much sense to defer compaction which was completely skipped (COMPACT_SKIP) for being unsuitable in the first place. This patch therefore makes deferred compaction trigger only when COMPACT_COMPLETE is returned from compact_zone(). Results of stress-highalloc becnmark show the difference is within measurement error, so the issue is rather cosmetic.
