1. the cpuset.c has been moved from kernel/cpuset.c to
kernel/cgroup/cpuset.c long time ago, but the comment is stale,
so we update it.
2. get_page_from_freelist() may alloc many pages according to
order, we may use pages for better.

"a page" is correct here - it's a single page of the given order (which
might be composed out of various order-0 pages, but that's not the point).

It's probably better to remove this altogether instead.
