[RFC PATCH v3 8/13] memory-hotplug : check page type in get_page_bootmem

[Yasuaki Ishimatsu <isimatu.yasuaki@jp.fujitsu.com>]

There is a possibility that get_page_bootmem() is called to the same page many
times. So when get_page_bootmem is called to the same page, the function only
increments page->_count.
