There are two minor cleanups for pcp list in page_alloc. More details can be found in respective patches. This patch (of 2): After commit fd56eef258a17 ("mm/page_alloc: simplify how many pages are selected per pcp list during bulk free"), we will drain all pages in selected pcp list. And we ensured passed count is < pcp->count. Then, the search will finish before wrap-around and track of active PCP lists range intended for wrap-around case is no longer needed.
