[PATCH 2/2] lib/raid6: use kmalloc() in raid6_select_algo()

raid6_select_algo() allocates an order 3 (8 pages) buffer that is used
as a scratch area for selection of the best algorithm.

For such large allocations kmalloc() would fall back to alloc_pages() but
still kmalloc() is a better API as it does not require unnecessary
castings and may provide more debugging possibilities.

Replace __get_free_pages() call with kmalloc().
