Yes I actually I also took a consideration for it.

If I keep existing logic of zone_watermark_fast,
following code in __zone_watermark_ok is not needed for __zone_watermark_unusable_free
  free_pages -= (1 << order) - 1;

But if __zone_watermark_unusable_free should return
all unusable free, the order size should be included.

Seems not critical but I want to hear opensource opinion.

Thank you
