Add check of order < 0 before calling free_pages()

Browse source 
The function addresses that are traced by ftrace are stored in pages,
 and the size is held in a variable. If there's some error in creating
 them, the allocate ones will be freed. In this case, it is possible that
 the order of pages to be freed may end up being negative due to a size of
 zero passed to get_count_order(), and then that negative number will cause
 free_pages() to free a very large section. Make sure that does not happen.

 "Add check of order < 0 before calling free_pages()

  The function addresses that are traced by ftrace are stored in pages,
  and the size is held in a variable. If there's some error in creating

  that the order of pages to be freed may end up being negative due to a
