[PATCH v2 4/7] mm/nommu: use alloc_pages_exact() rather than it's own implementation
From: Joonsoo Kim
Date: Fri Nov 21 2014 - 03:12:48 EST
do_mmap_private() in nommu.c try to allocate physically contiguous pages
with arbitrary size in some cases and we now have good abstract function
to do exactly same thing, alloc_pages_exact(). So, change to use it.
There is no functional change.
This is the preparation step for support page owner feature accurately.
