Actually we are not replacing DIV_ROUND_UP, we are just adding another
round_up operation to min_nrpages pages after we get the last_index by
converting the bytes to page count. The main idea is to align the
last_index to min_order, if it is set. AFAIK, there is no one helper
that can do both lines in one shot.
