[patch 2/4] mm: Fix free_all_bootmem_core alignment check

From: Johannes Weiner
Date: Wed Apr 30 2008 - 13:53:45 EST


The check for node_boot_start is bogus because we start freeing at the
corresponding pfn. So check if the pfn is properly aligned instead in
a more readable way and adjust the documentation.

Also remove an unneeded accounting variable.
