COMPACTION enables MIGRATION, but MIGRATION spawns a warning if numa
or memhotplug aren't selected. However MIGRATION doesn't depend on
them. I guess it's just trying to be strict doing a double check on
who's enabling it, but it doesn't know that compaction also enables
MIGRATION.

Could you please send along a copy of the warning?  It's unclear
whether it's a compiler warning or a Kconfig warning or a runtime
warning or what.

This was the way an earlier version of compaction had Kconfig. I'm not sure
at what point the "|| COMPACTION" got dropped.
