Johannes Weiner ee414bd97b mm: page_alloc: tighten up find_suitable_fallback()
find_suitable_fallback() is not as efficient as it could be, and somewhat
difficult to follow.

1. should_try_claim_block() is a loop invariant. There is no point in
   checking fallback areas if the caller is interested in claimable
   blocks but the order and the migratetype don't allow for that.

2. __rmqueue_steal() doesn't care about claimability, so it shouldn't
   have to run those tests.

Different callers want different things from this helper:

1. __compact_finished() scans orders up until it finds a claimable block
2. __rmqueue_claim() scans orders down as long as blocks are claimable
3. __rmqueue_steal() doesn't care about claimability at all

Move should_try_claim_block() out of the loop. Only test it for the
two callers who care in the first place. Distinguish "no blocks" from
"order + mt are not claimable" in the return value; __rmqueue_claim()
can stop once order becomes unclaimable, __compact_finished() can keep
advancing until order becomes claimable.
