mm: compaction: update the cc->nr_migratepages when allocating or freeing the freepages

Browse Source 
Currently we will use 'cc->nr_freepages >= cc->nr_migratepages' comparison
to ensure that enough freepages are isolated in isolate_freepages(),
however it just decreases the cc->nr_freepages without updating
cc->nr_migratepages in compaction_alloc(), which will waste more CPU
cycles and cause too many freepages to be isolated.

So we should also update the cc->nr_migratepages when allocating or
freeing the freepages to avoid isolating excess freepages.  And I can see
fewer free pages are scanned and isolated when running thpcompact on my
Arm64 server:

                                       k6.7         k6.7_patched
Ops Compaction pages isolated      120692036.00   118160797.00
Ops Compaction migrate scanned     131210329.00   154093268.00
Ops Compaction free scanned       1090587971.00  1080632536.00
Ops Compact scan efficiency               12.03          14.26

Moreover, I did not see an obvious latency improvements, this is likely
because isolating freepages is not the bottleneck in the thpcompact test
case.
