The commit 387ba26fb1cb added __alloc_pages_bulk() along with the page_list
argument. The next commit 0f87d9d30f21 added the array-based argument. As
it turns out, the page_list argument has no users in the current tree (if it
ever had any). Dropping it allows for a slight simplification and eliminates
some unnecessary checks, now that page_array is required.

I spotted this while reading some code. Sending as RFC because I'm not sure
if there might be a good reason to keep it.
