[PATCH] mm/memblock:use a more appropriate order calculation when free memblock pages

[carver4lio]

From: Hailong Liu <liu.hailong6@xxxxxxxxxx>

When system in the booting stage, pages span from [start, end] of a memblock
are freed to buddy in a order as large as possible (less than MAX_ORDER) at
first, then decrease gradually to a proper order(less than end) in a loop.

However, *min(MAX_ORDER - 1UL, __ffs(start))* can not get the largest order
in some cases.
Instead, *__ffs(end - start)* may be more appropriate and meaningful.
