We currently initialize the vm_page array in three passes: one to zero
the array, one to initialize the "order" field of each page (necessary
when inserting them into the vm_phys buddy allocator one-by-one), and
one to initialize the remaining non-zero fields and individually insert
each page into the allocator.
Merge the three passes into one following a suggestion from alc:
initialize vm_page fields in a single pass, and use vm_phys_free_contig()
to efficiently insert physical memory segments into the buddy allocator.
This reduces the initialization time to a third or a quarter of what it
was before on most systems that I tested.
