__compaction_suitable() is supposed to check for available migration targets. However, it also checks whether the operation was requested via /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory, and whether the original allocation request can already succeed. These don't apply to all callsites. Move the checks out to the callers, so that later patches can deal with them one by one. No functional change intended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
