[PATCH v4 4/7] mm: make alloc_contig_range work at pageblock granularity

[Zi Yan <zi.yan@sent.com>]

From: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com>

alloc_contig_range() worked at MAX_ORDER-1 granularity to avoid merging
pageblocks with different migratetypes. It might unnecessarily convert
extra pageblocks at the beginning and at the end of the range. Change
alloc_contig_range() to work at pageblock granularity.

It is done by restoring pageblock types and split >pageblock_order free
pages after isolating at MAX_ORDER-1 granularity and migrating pages
away at pageblock granularity. The reason for this process is that
during isolation, some pages, either free or in-use, might have >pageblock
sizes and isolating part of them can cause free accounting issues.
Restoring the migratetypes of the pageblocks not in the interesting
range later is much easier.
