Subject: [PATCH] mm/huge_memory: move writeback and truncation checks early

We should check as early as possible if we should bail due to writeback
or truncation. This will allow us to add further sanity checks earlier
as well.

This introduces no functional changes.

While working on min order support for LBS this came up as an improvement
as we can check for the min order early earlier, so this sets the stage
up for that.

Why earlier than basic input parameter checks (new_order?

Sorry, but I don't see the reason for that change. It's all happening
extremely early, what are we concerned about?

It's likely better to send that patch with the actual patch "to add
further sanity checks earlier as well", and why they have to be that early.

It's a clear eye-sore when we add min order, I'll leave the eyesores for
others. It can wait.
