[patch 133/181] mm/page_alloc.c: micro-optimization remove unnecessary branch

Subject: mm/page_alloc.c: micro-optimization remove unnecessary branch

Previously flags check was separated into two separated checks with two
separated branches. In case of presence of any of two mentioned flags,
the same effect on flow occurs. Therefore checks can be merged and one
branch can be avoided.
