If allocation fails after compaction then compaction may be deferred for
a number of allocation attempts. If there are subsequent failures,
compact_defer_shift is increased to defer for longer periods. This patch
uses that information to scale the number of pages reclaimed with
compact_defer_shift until allocations succeed again.
