mm, page_alloc: avoid page_to_pfn() when merging buddies
On architectures that allow memory holes, page_is_buddy() has to perform page_to_pfn() to check for the memory hole. After the previous patch, we have the pfn already available in __free_one_page(), which is the only caller of page_is_buddy(), so move the check there and avoid page_to_pfn().
