mm/page_alloc: add an array-based interface to the bulk page allocator
The proposed callers for the bulk allocator store pages from the bulk allocator in an array. This patch adds an array-based interface to the API to avoid multiple list iterations. The page list interface is preserved to avoid requiring all users of the bulk API to allocate and manage enough storage to store the pages.
