Subject: [PATCH v6 4/4] mm: Use ARRAY_END() instead of open-coding it

There aren't any bugs in this code; it's purely cosmetic.

By using ARRAY_END(), we prevent future issues, in case the code is
modified; it has less moving parts.  Also, it should be more readable
(and perhaps more importantly, greppable), as there are several ways of
writing an expression that gets the end of an array, which are unified
by this API name.
