mm/compaction: really limit compact_unevictable_allowed to 0 and 1
The proc file `compact_unevictable_allowed' should allow 0 and 1 only, the `extra*' attribues have been set properly but without proc_dointvec_minmax() as the `proc_handler' the limit will not be enforced. Use proc_dointvec_minmax() as the `proc_handler' to enfoce the valid specified range.
