Patch series "Minor fixes for memory allocation profiling", v2.

Over the last couple months I gathered a few reports of minor issues in
memory allocation profiling which are addressed in this patchset.


This patch (of 2):

When bulk-freeing an array of pages use release_pages() instead of freeing
them page-by-page.
