[PATCH v5 02/17] perf/ring_buffer: stop using PG_private as AUX page high-order marker

[Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com>]

A high-order AUX page sets PG_private on its first page and stores the
order in first_page->private. Stop using PG_private and check
first_page->private for AUX page order only in the ring buffer and its
users. This is fine because page->private is 0 for order-0 AUX pages,
matching the page order.

It prepares for a future commit that remove PG_private.

No functional change intended.
