Well I've never heard of this helper so I would have to look it up to see what it does. Looks like there's not many users. Anyway it's simpler to use just "page + i" if within MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES, which should be the case here. That can also actually save a few cycles. Otherwise it looks like a pointless churn to me.
