Allow SH-Mobile ARM to specify CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER.
The Kconfig entry is taken from SH and non-4K page size
stuff has been trimmed away.

+	  The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
+	  blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
+	  pages.  This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
+	  keeps in the memory allocator.  If you need to allocate very large

+	  increase this value.
+
+	  This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
+	  a value of 11 means that the largest free memory block is 2^10 pages.
