Subject: [PATCH 02/25] mm, compaction: Rearrange compact_control

compact_control spans two cache lines with write-intensive lines on
both. Rearrange so the most write-intensive fields are in the same
cache line. This has a negligible impact on the overall performance of
compaction and is more a tidying exercise than anything.
