Thanks to the previous commit, __exclude_unnecessary_pages does not
require any specific size of the cycle.

/*
- * Let C be a cyclic buffer size and B a bitmap size used for
- * representing maximum block size managed by buddy allocator.
- *
- * For some combinations of C and B, clearing operation can overrun
- * the cyclic buffer. Let's consider three cases.
- *
- * - If C == B, this is trivially safe.
- *
- * - If B > C, overrun can easily happen.
- *
- * - In case of C > B, if C mod B != 0, then there exist n > m > 0,
- * B > b > 0 such that n x C = m x B + b. This means that clearing
- * operation overruns cyclic buffer (B - b)-bytes in the
- * combination of n-th cycle and m-th block.
- *
- * Note that C mod B != 0 iff (m x C) mod B != 0 for some m.
- *
- * If C == B, C mod B == 0 always holds. Again, if B > C, C mod B != 0
- * always holds. Hence, it's always sufficient to check the condition
- * C mod B != 0 in order to determine whether overrun can happen or
- * not.
- *
- * The bitmap size used for maximum block size B is calculated from
- * MAX_ORDER as:
- *
- * B := DIVIDE_UP((1 << (MAX_ORDER - 1)), BITS_PER_BYTE)
- *
- * Normally, MAX_ORDER is 11 at default. This is configurable through
- * CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER.
