[PATCH v1 20/23] mm/kconfig: make BALLOON_COMPACTION depend on MIGRATION

[David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com>]

Migration support for balloon memory depends on MIGRATION not
COMPACTION. Compaction is simply another user of page migration.

The last dependency on compaction.c was effectively removed with
commit 3d388584d599 ("mm: convert "movable" flag in page->mapping to a
page flag"). Ever since, everything for handling movable_ops page
migration resides in core migration code.

So let's change the dependency and adjust the description +
help text.

We'll rename BALLOON_COMPACTION separately next.

-	  Memory fragmentation introduced by ballooning might reduce

-	  pages enlisted as being part of memory balloon devices avoids the
-	  scenario aforementioned and helps improving memory defragmentation.
