[RFC][PATCH] no bitmap buddy allocator : modifies expand() (2/4)

[Hiroyuki KAMEZAWA <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com>]

This is part (2/4) and modifies expand().

This patch removes bitmap operation from alloc_pages().

Instead of using MARK_USED() bitmap operation,
this patch records page's order in page struct itself, page->private field.
