Subject: [PATCH] selftests/mm: compaction_test: Fix trivial test pass on Aarch64 when nr_hugepages = 0

Currently, if at runtime we are not able to allocate a huge page, the
test will trivially pass on Aarch64 due to no exception being raised on
division by zero while computing compaction_index. Fix that by checking
for nr_hugepages == 0. Anyways, in general, avoid a division by zero by
exiting the program beforehand. While at it, fix a typo.
