When I think of "direct compaction", I think of compaction triggered for 
high-order allocations from the page allocator before direct reclaim.  
This is the opposite of being triggered for is_via_compact_memory().

This will be the third call to is_via_compact_memory() in this function.  
Maybe just do

	const bool sysctl = is_via_compact_memory(cc->order);

early in the function since it won't change during the iteration?  (And 
maybe get rid of that extra newline that already exists at the beginning 
of the iteration?

Otherwise:
