[RFC PATCH 2/3] drivers: virtio_mem: use pageblock size as the minimum virtio_mem size.

From: Zi Yan
Date: Mon Nov 15 2021 - 19:04:50 EST


From: Zi Yan <ziy@xxxxxxxxxx>

alloc_contig_range() now only needs to be aligned to pageblock_order,
drop virtio_mem size requirement that it needs to be the max of
pageblock_order and MAX_ORDER.
