From: Robin Holt <[email protected]>

Currently, when free_all_bootmem() calls __free_pages_memory(), the
number of contiguous pages that __free_pages_memory() passes to the
buddy allocator is limited to BITS_PER_LONG.  In order to be able to
free only the first page of a 2MiB chunk, we need that to be increased.
We are increasing to the maximum size available.
