Subject: [RFC][patch 0/5] Bootmem fixes

Hi,

here are a bunch of fixes for the bootmem allocator.  These are tested
on boring x86_32 UMA hardware, but 3 patches only show their effects
on multi-node systems, so please review and test.

Only the first two patches are real code changes, the others are
cleanups.

`Node-setup agnostic free_bootmem()' assumes that all bootmem
descriptors describe contiguous regions and bdata_list is in ascending
order.  Yinghai was unsure about this fact, Ingo could you ACK/NAK
this?
