[PATCH v1 2/2] mm: enforce pageblock_order < MAX_ORDER

Some places in the kernel don't really expect pageblock_order >=
MAX_ORDER, and it looks like this is only possible in corner cases:
1) CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT we'll end up freeing pageblock_order
pages via __free_pages_core(), which cannot possibly work.
2) find_zone_movable_pfns_for_nodes() will roundup the ZONE_MOVABLE
start PFN to MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. Consequently with a bigger
pageblock_order, we could have a single pageblock partially managed by
two zones.
3) compaction code runs into __fragmentation_index() with order
>= MAX_ORDER, when checking WARN_ON_ONCE(order >= MAX_ORDER). [1]
4) mm/page_reporting.c won't be reporting any pages with default
page_reporting_order == pageblock_order, as we'll be skipping the
reporting loop inside page_reporting_process_zone().
5) __rmqueue_fallback() will never be able to steal with
ALLOC_NOFRAGMENT.
pageblock_order >= MAX_ORDER is weird either way: it's a pure
optimization for making alloc_contig_range(), as used for allcoation of
gigantic pages, a little more reliable to succeed. However, if there is
demand for somewhat reliable allocation of gigantic pages, affected setups
should be using CMA or boottime allocations instead.
So let's make sure that pageblock_order < MAX_ORDER and simplify.
