Thierry reported offline that the strict check "mm: compaction: Iron out
isolate_freepages_block() and isolate_freepages_range() -fix1" check is
still too strict because it's possible for more pages to be isolated
than required. This patch corrects the check.
There are still CMA-related problems but they are "somewhere else" yet
to be determined.
