mm/page_alloc.c: memory hotplug: free pages as higher order
When freeing pages are done with higher order, time spent on coalescing pages by buddy allocator can be reduced. With section size of 256MB, hot add latency of a single section shows improvement from 50-60 ms to less than 1 ms, hence improving the hot add latency by 60 times. Modify external providers of online callback to align with the change.
