Subject: [PATCH 1/3] mm/page_reporting: Allow to set reporting order

The macro PAGE_REPORTING_MIN_ORDER is defined as the page reporting
threshold. Without a variable, it's impossible to be changed at runtime.

This introduces variable (@page_reporting_order) so that the threshold
can be changed at runtime.
