Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.6 17/17] dm-crypt: start allocating with MAX_ORDER

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit 13648e04a9b831b3dfa5cf3887dfa6cf8fe5fe69 ]

Commit 23baf831a32c ("mm, treewide: redefine MAX_ORDER sanely")
changed the meaning of MAX_ORDER from exclusive to inclusive. So, we
can allocate compound pages with up to 1 << MAX_ORDER pages.

Reflect this change in dm-crypt and start trying to allocate compound
pages with MAX_ORDER.
