Subject: [PATCH] mm/readahead: limit page cache size in page_cache_ra_order()

In page_cache_ra_order(), the maximal order of the page cache to be
allocated shouldn't be larger than MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER.  Otherwise, it's
possible the large page cache can't be supported by xarray when the
corresponding xarray entry is split.

For example, HPAGE_PMD_ORDER is 13 on ARM64 when the base page size is
64KB.  The PMD-sized page cache can't be supported by xarray.
