Re: [PATCH] PC, KVM, CMA: Fix regression caused by wrong get_order() use

fc95ca7284bc54953165cba76c3228bd2cdb9591 claims that there is no
functional change but this is not true as it calls get_order() (which
takes bytes) where it should have called ilog2() and the kernel stops
on VM_BUG_ON().

This replaces get_order() with ilog2().
Should we round it up ? ie, ilog2(kvm_rma_pages - 1) + 1 ?
