After 90ed667c03fe5 ("Revert "Revert "mm/compaction: fix set skip in
fast_find_migrateblock"""), we remove skip set in fast_find_migrateblock.
Correct comment that fast_find_block is used to avoid isolation_suitable
check for pageblock returned from fast_find_migrateblock because
fast_find_migrateblock will mark found pageblock skipped.

Instead, comment that fast_find_block is used to avoid a redundant check
of fast found pageblock which is already checked skip flag inside
fast_find_migrateblock.
