mm: fix off-by-two in __zone_watermark_ok()

Commit 88f5acf88ae6 ("mm: page allocator: adjust the per-cpu counter
threshold when memory is low") changed the form how free_pages is
calculated but it forgot that we used to do free_pages - ((1 << order) -
1) so we ended up with off-by-two when calculating free_pages.
