Revert "mm: have order > 0 compaction start off where it left"
This reverts commit
7db8889a ("mm: have order > 0 compaction start off
where it left") and commit
de74f1cc ("mm: have order > 0 compaction start
near a pageblock with free pages"). These patches were a good idea and
tests confirmed that they massively reduced the amount of scanning but the
implementation is complex and tricky to understand. A later patch will
cache what pageblocks should be skipped and reimplements the concept of
compact_cached_free_pfn on top for both migration and free scanners.
