From: Johannes Weiner <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: page_alloc: generalize order handling in __free_pages_bootmem()
__free_pages_bootmem() used to special-case higher-order frees to save
individual page checking with free_pages_bulk().
Nowadays, both zero order and non-zero order frees use free_pages(), which
checks each individual page anyway, and so there is little point in making
the distinction anymore. The higher-order loop will work just fine for
zero order pages.
