Patch series "Use pageblock_order for cma and alloc_contig_range alignment", v11.
This patchset tries to remove the MAX_ORDER-1 alignment requirement for CMA
and alloc_contig_range(). It prepares for my upcoming changes to make
MAX_ORDER adjustable at boot time[1].
The MAX_ORDER - 1 alignment requirement comes from that
alloc_contig_range() isolates pageblocks to remove free memory from buddy
allocator but isolating only a subset of pageblocks within a page spanning
across multiple pageblocks causes free page accounting issues. Isolated
page might not be put into the right free list, since the code assumes the
migratetype of the first pageblock as the whole free page migratetype.
This is based on the discussion at [2].
To remove the requirement, this patchset:
1. isolates pages at pageblock granularity instead of
max(MAX_ORDER_NR_PAEGS, pageblock_nr_pages);
2. splits free pages across the specified range or migrates in-use pages
across the specified range then splits the freed page to avoid free page
accounting issues (it happens when multiple pageblocks within a single page
have different migratetypes);
3. only checks unmovable pages within the range instead of MAX_ORDER - 1 aligned
range during isolation to avoid alloc_contig_range() failure when pageblocks
within a MAX_ORDER - 1 aligned range are allocated separately.
4. returns pages not in the range as it did before.
One optimization might come later:
1. make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a separate bit to be able to restore the original
migratetypes when isolation fails in the middle of the range.

This patch (of 6):
has_unmovable_pages() is only used in mm/page_isolation.c. Move it from
mm/page_alloc.c and make it static.
