There's an issue here if the pool grows too large which would result in
order > MAX_ORDER-1.  We can fix that by limiting order to MAX_ORDER-1 and 
doing nr_pages = 1 << order.

I should also add support for trying smaller page allocations if our 
preferred expansion size results in an allocation failure.

Other than that, I'll remove the RFC tag and send a refreshed series by 
the end of the week unless there are other comments or suggestions to 
factor in.

Thanks!
