this really made me scratch my head. Wouldn't it be much simpler to do
the following?
order = min(MAX_ORDER - 1, get_order(end - start))?
Yes. Much better. Will change to,
order = min(MAX_ORDER - 1,
get_order(PFN_PHYS(end) - PFN_PHYS(start)));

I think this is wort a separate patch as it is unrelated to the patch.
Sure. Will split the patch.
