Since commit <6539cc05386> (mm: memcontrol: fold mem_cgroup_do_charge()),
the order to pass to mem_cgroup_oom() is calculated by passing the number
of pages to get_order() instead of the expected  size in bytes. AFAICT,
it only affects the value displayed in the oom warning message.
This patch fix this.

fls(nr_pages)?

get_order() is basically fls(x / PAGE_SIZE).
