What a curious way of writing DIV_ROUND_UP(size, PAGE_SIZE)
(throughout). A quick grep shows about 230 DIV_ROUND_UP and 110 of what
you wrote, so it's not something you invented, but DIV_ROUND_UP is
clearer.

This troubles me. We're freeing the memory and then dereferencing
the page that was freed. I know that struct pages don't go away when
they're freed, and they don't change which node they're allocated to,
but it feels wrong. I'd be happier if the page_pgdat() were extracted
prior to freeing the memory.
