... which seems to be broken at present anyway: The main loops in
{alloc,free}_empty_pages_and_pagevec() both did not get their
upper bound updated correctly (should be npages, but was left to
be nr_pages), for alloc_empty_pages_and_pagevec() the wrong value
is also being used to allocate pagevec[] (though I really think that this
shouldn't allocate more than a nr_pages vector to avoid a rather large
but unnecessary kmalloc() when nr_pages is small), and in its error
path only a single page gets freed (rather than the whole
balloon_order chunk).
