Previously, block size was flexible based on the constraint that the GCD(PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE) > 1. However, this carried the overhead that keeping a floating number of populated free pages required scanning over the free regions of a chunk. Setting the block size to be fixed at PAGE_SIZE lets us know when an empty page becomes used as we will break a full contig_hint of a block. This means we no longer have to scan the whole chunk upon breaking a contig_hint which empty page management piggybacked off. A later patch takes advantage of this to optimize the allocation path by only scanning forward using the scan_hint introduced later too.
