mm/page_alloc: place pages to tail in __free_pages_core()

Browse source 
__free_pages_core() is used when exposing fresh memory to the buddy during
system boot and when onlining memory in generic_online_page().

generic_online_page() is used in two cases:

1. Direct memory onlining in online_pages().
2. Deferred memory onlining in memory-ballooning-like mechanisms (HyperV
   balloon and virtio-mem), when parts of a section are kept
   fake-offline to be fake-onlined later on.

In 1, we already place pages to the tail of the freelist.  Pages will be
freed to MIGRATE_ISOLATE lists first and moved to the tail of the
freelists via undo_isolate_page_range().

In 2, we currently don't implement a proper rule.  In case of virtio-mem,
where we currently always online MAX_ORDER - 1 pages, the pages will be
placed to the HEAD of the freelist - undesireable.  While the hyper-v
balloon calls generic_online_page() with single pages, usually it will
call it on successive single pages in a larger block.

The pages are fresh, so place them to the tail of the freelist and avoid
the PCP.  In __free_pages_core(), remove the now superflouos call to
set_page_refcounted() and add a comment regarding page initialization and
the refcount.

Note: In 2.  we currently don't shuffle.  If ever relevant (page shuffling
is usually of limited use in virtualized environments), we might want to
shuffle after a sequence of generic_online_page() calls in the relevant
callers.
