3.16.7-ckt16 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf at ezchip.com>

commit 3f81d2447b37ac697b3c600039f2c6b628c06e21 upstream.

We were previously using free_bootmem() and just getting lucky
that nothing too bad happened.
