[PATCH 5.1 018/155] mm/compaction.c: fix an undefined behaviour

[ Upstream commit dd7ef7bd14640f11763b54f55131000165f48321 ]

In a low-memory situation, cc->fast_search_fail can keep increasing as it
is unable to find an available page to isolate in
fast_isolate_freepages(). As the result, it could trigger an error below,
so just compare with the maximum bits can be shifted first.

UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in mm/compaction.c:1160:30
shift exponent 64 is too large for 64-bit type 'unsigned long'
