Subject: [PATCH] mm: page_alloc: use the correct type of list for free pages

Commit bf75f200569d ("mm/page_alloc: add page->buddy_list and page->pcp_list")
introduces page->buddy_list and page->pcp_list as a union with page->lru, but
missed to change get_page_from_free_area() to use page->buddy_list to clarify
the correct type of list for a free page.
