Just to clarify the use of #ifdef:
MAX_ORDER is changed to a boot time variable and it cannot be used
for static array declaration, so I added MIN_MAX_ORDER.
At the moment, there are three cases of setting MAX_ORDER and
MIN_MAX_ORDER:
1. CONFIG_ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER tells the MAX_ORDER certain arch
needs at compilation time.
2. CONFIG_SET_MAX_ORDER allows to change MAX_ORDER when an arch
does not set its MAX_ORER and SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is set.
3. !SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP and no CONFIG_ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER, then
MAX_ORDER is set to 11 by default.
I agree the code is hard to read, I will clean this up.
