In a low-memory situation, cc->fast_search_fail can keep increasing as
it is unable to find an available page to isolate in
fast_isolate_freepages(). As the result, it could trigger an error
below, so just compare with the maximum bits can be shifted first.

UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in mm/compaction.c:1160:30
shift exponent 64 is too large for 64-bit type 'unsigned long'

That's rather an eyesore.  How about

static inline unsigned int
freelist_scan_limit(struct compact_control *cc)
{
	unsigned short shift = BITS_PER_LONG - 1;

	return (COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX >> min(shift, cc->fast_search_fail)) + 1;
}

Agree. It looks better.
