Due to commit e58469b ("mm: page_alloc: use word-based accesses for
get/set pageblock bitmaps"), pageblock bitmap is accessed with word-based
access. This operation could be simplified a little.
Intuitively, if we want to get a bit range [start_idx, end_idx] in a word,
we can do like this:
mask = (1 << (end_bitidx - start_bitidx + 1)) - 1;
ret = (word >> start_idx) & mask;
And also if we want to set a bit range [start_idx, end_idx] with flags, we
can do the same by just shift start_bitidx.
By doing so we reduce some instructions for these two helper functions:
Before Patched
set_pfnblock_flags_mask 209 198(-5%)
get_pfnblock_flags_mask 101 87(-13%)
Since the syntax is changed a little, we need to check the whole 4-bit
migrate_type instead of part of it.
