Subject: [PATCH v4] mm/page_alloc: Simplify free_page_is_bad by removing free_page_is_bad_report

From: Ye Liu <liuye@...inos.cn>

Refactor free_page_is_bad() to call bad_page() directly, removing the 
intermediate free_page_is_bad_report(). This reduces unnecessary 
indirection, improving code clarity and maintainability without changing 
functionality.
