Arve Hjønnevåg 6d3163ce86 mm: check if any page in a pageblock is reserved before marking it MIGRATE_RESERVE 
This fixes a problem where the first pageblock got marked MIGRATE_RESERVE
even though it only had a few free pages.  eg, On current ARM port, The
kernel starts at offset 0x8000 to leave room for boot parameters, and the
memory is freed later.

This in turn caused no contiguous memory to be reserved and frequent
kswapd wakeups that emptied the caches to get more contiguous memory.

Unfortunatelly, ARM needs order-2 allocation for pgd (see
arm/mm/pgd.c#pgd_alloc()).  Therefore the issue is not minor nor easy
avoidable.
