Subject: mm/memory_hotplug: make sure the pfn is aligned to the order when onlining

Commit a9cd410a3d29 ("mm/page_alloc.c: memory hotplug: free pages as
higher order") assumed that any PFN we get via memory resources is aligned
to to MAX_ORDER - 1, I am not convinced that is always true.  Let's play
safe, check the alignment and fallback to single pages.

akpm: warn in this situation so we get to find out if and why this ever
occurs.
