Subject: [PATCH v3 08/14] nios2: drop ranges for definition of ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER

From: "Mike Rapoport (IBM)" <rppt@...nel.org>

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.
