[PATCH] block: partitions: replace __get_free_page() with kmalloc()

["Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)" <rppt@kernel.org>]

check_partition() allocates a buffer to use as backing buffer for
seq_buf.

This buffer can be allocated with kmalloc() as there's nothing special
about it to go directly to the page allocator.

Replace use of __get_free_page() with kmalloc() and free_page() with
kfree().

This is a (tiny) part of larger work of replacing page allocator calls
with kmalloc:
