Subject: [PATCH v1 2/5] mm: Exit early in set_zone_contiguous() if already contiguous

No need to recompute in case the zone is already marked contiguous.
We will soon exploit this on the memory removal path, where we will only
clear zone->contiguous on zones that intersect with the memory to be
removed.
