we get similar warning because (order=18 for 16G) > MAX_FOLIO_ORDER(8) in hugetlb_add_hstate().

So I guess making PPC select ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE if ARCH_SUPPORTS_HUGETLBFS is true,
should help us resolve this warning w.r.t order. 
And I guess the runtime allocation of gigantic pages is anyway being controlled
via, __HAVE_ARCH_GIGANTIC_PAGE_RUNTIME_SUPPORTED

Feel free to correct me here if I missed anything. There seems to be a
lot of history related to hugetlb / gigantic pages.
