Subject: [PATCH] be2net: fix adapter->big_page_size miscaculation

The commit d66acc39c7ce ("bitops: Optimise get_order()") introduced a
problem for the be2net driver as "rx_frag_size" could be a module
parameter that can be changed while loading the module. That commit
checks __builtin_constant_p() first in get_order() which cause
"adapter->big_page_size" to be assigned a value based on the
the default "rx_frag_size" value at the compilation time. It also
generate a compilation warning,

                                 ^~~~~~~~~

Fix it by using __get_order() instead which will calculate in runtime.
