[PATCH]compaction: checks correct fragmentation index

[Shaohua Li <shaohua.li@intel.com>]

fragmentation_index() returns -1000 when the allocation might succeed
This doesn't match the comment and code in compaction_suitable(). I
thought compaction_suitable should return COMPACT_PARTIAL in -1000
case, because in this case allocation could succeed depending on
watermarks.
