Subject: [PATCH 1/3] mm: page_alloc.c Remove duplicate call to
 trace_mm_page_free_direct

Function 'trace_mm_page_free_direct' is called in function '__free_pages'.
But it is called again in 'free_hot_page' if order == 0 and produce duplicate
records in trace file for mm_page_free_direct event. As below:

K-PID    CPU#    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
  gnome-terminal-1567  [000]  4415.246466: mm_page_free_direct: page=ffffea0003db9f40 pfn=1155800 order=0
  gnome-terminal-1567  [000]  4415.246468: mm_page_free_direct: page=ffffea0003db9f40 pfn=1155800 order=0
  gnome-terminal-1567  [000]  4415.246506: mm_page_alloc: page=ffffea0003db9f40 pfn=1155800 order=0 migratetype=0 gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL
  gnome-terminal-1567  [000]  4415.255557: mm_page_free_direct: page=ffffea0003db9f40 pfn=1155800 order=0
  gnome-terminal-1567  [000]  4415.255557: mm_page_free_direct: page=ffffea0003db9f40 pfn=1155800 order=0

This patch removes the first call and add a call to 'trace_mm_page_free_direct'
in '__free_pages_ok'.
