From: Minghao Chi <chi.minghao@zte.com.cn>

Available only when CONFIG_COMPACTION is set. When 1 is written to
the file, all zones are compacted such that free memory is available
in contiguous blocks where possible.
But echo others-parameter > compact_memory, this function will be
triggered by writing parameters to the interface.

Applied this patch,
sh/$ echo 1.1 > /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory
sh/$ sh: write error: Invalid argument
