Using the e820 allocator will now mean it's rounded up to pages.
That will waste a bit of memory, but i suppose it's ok.

That's find_first_bit() ?  Please use that

No extra spaces here please (and in some other places)

Have you checked how much the code .text size changes because
of the pointer reference? If it's a lot phys_to_nid might need to
