Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 07/12] virtio: virtio_balloon: use pageblock_order instead of MAX_ORDER

From: Zi Yan <ziy@...dia.com>

virtio_balloon used MAX_ORDER to report free page blocks to host, as
MAX_ORDER becomes modifiable in later commits, the reported free size might
be too big. pageblock_order is either 1/2 of or the same as MAX_ORDER
currently. Use pageblock_order instead to make virtio_balloon have a
constant free page block report size when MAX_ORDER is changed in the later
commits.
