This patch removes bitmap from buddy allocator used in
alloc_pages()/free_pages() in the kernel 2.6.8.1.

For what it's worth, I like the concept. Suspend 2 currently builds a
bitmap of free pages precisely because iterating through these lists is
slow. Getting the data directly from page structs will allow me to
remove some code.

Many today claim to be tolerant. But true tolerance can cope with others
being intolerant.
