Subject: mm: page_alloc: generalize order handling in __free_pages_bootmem()
X-Git-Tag: v3.3-rc1~113^2~91
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c3993076f842de3754360e5b998d6657a9d30303;p=profile%2Fivi%2Fkernel-x86-ivi.git

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.
