[merged mm-stable] nios2-drop-ranges-for-definition-of-arch_force_max_order.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: nios2: drop ranges for definition of ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     nios2-drop-ranges-for-definition-of-arch_force_max_order.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: nios2: drop ranges for definition of ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER
Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2023 08:22:27 +0300

nios2 defines range for ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER allowing MAX_ORDER up to 19,
which implies maximal contiguous allocation size of 2^19 pages or 2GiB.

Drop bogus definition of ranges for ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER and leave it a
simple integer with sensible default.

Users that *really* need to change the value of ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER will
be able to do so but they won't be mislead by the bogus ranges.
