Why not do each order separately? This way you can
use a single bit to pass a huge page to host.

Not a requirement but hey.

Alternatively (and maybe that is a better idea0
if you wanted to, you could just skip lone 4K pages.
It's not clear that they are worth bothering with.
Add a flag to start with some reasonably large order and go from there.
