Now that we use this function for ringbuffers and other "small" objects, it's worth avoiding an extra kmalloc()/kfree() cycle if the page array is small enough to put on the stack. Here we've chosen an arbitrary cutoff of 32 (4k) pages, which is big enough for a ringbuffer (4 pages) or a context image (currently up to 22 pages).
