[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: xtensa: reword ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER prompt and help text
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     xtensa-reword-arch_force_max_order-prompt-and-help-text.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: xtensa: reword ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER prompt and help text
Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2023 08:22:33 +0300

The prompt and help text of ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER are not even close to
describe this configuration option.

Update both to actually describe what this option does.

-	  The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory

-	  pages.  This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel

+	  The kernel page allocator limits the size of maximal physically

+	  defines the maximal power of two of number of pages that can be
+	  allocated as a single contiguous block. This option allows
+	  overriding the default setting when ability to allocate very
