Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) 8fb156c9ee mm/page_owner: change split_page_owner to take a count
The implementation of split_page_owner() prefers a count rather than the
old order of the page.  When we support a variable size THP, we won't
have the order at this point, but we will have the number of pages.
So change the interface to what the caller and callee would prefer.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
