[PATCH 2/3] FRV: Clean up bootmem allocator's page freeing algorithm

[David Howells]

The attached patch cleans up the way the bootmem allocator frees pages.

A new function, __free_pages_bootmem(), is provided in mm/page_alloc.c () that
is called from mm/bootmem.c to turn pages over to the main allocator. All the
bits of code to initialise pages (clearing PG_reserved and setting the page
count) are moved to here. The checks on page validity are removed, on the
assumption that the struct page arrays will have been prepared correctly.
