This is all quite horrific :/ What's wrong with something simple:

	/* Can't allocate more than MAX_ORDER  */
	if (get_order((unsigned long)nr_pages * sizeof(void*)) > MAX_ORDER)
		return -EINVAL;

If you're on 32bit then nr_pages should never be big enough to overflow,
fundamentally you'll only have 32-PAGE_SHIFT bits in nr_pages.
