Subject: [PATCH 4/9] mm/compaction: simplify pfn iteration in isolate_freepages_range

We call isolate_freepages_block in strict mode, continuous pages in
pageblock will be isolated if isolate_freepages_block successed.
Then pfn + isolated will point to start of next pageblock to scan
no matter how many pageblocks are isolated in isolate_freepages_block.
Use pfn + isolated as start of next pageblock to scan to simplify the
iteration.
