Christophe reported that the change to ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER to limit the
range to 10 had broken his ability to configure hugepages:
# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-8192kB/nr_hugepages
sh: write error: Invalid argument
Several of the powerpc defconfigs previously set the
ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER value to 12, via the definition in
arch/powerpc/configs/fsl-emb-nonhw.config, used by:
mpc85xx_defconfig
mpc85xx_smp_defconfig
corenet32_smp_defconfig
corenet64_smp_defconfig
mpc86xx_defconfig
mpc86xx_smp_defconfig
Fix it by increasing the allowed range to 12 to restore the previous
behaviour.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
