Yes, we could put the next patch before this one, but using
s_mb_group_prealloc as an example makes it easier to understand
why the attr_pointer_pi case is added here.There are several other
variables that don't have more convincing examples.

I think it's enough here to make sure that mb_best_avail_max_trim_order
is a positive number, since we always make sure that min_order
is not less than 0, as follows:

          order = fls(ac->ac_g_ex.fe_len) - 1;
          min_order = order - sbi->s_mb_best_avail_max_trim_order;
          if (min_order < 0)
                  min_order = 0;

An oversized mb_best_avail_max_trim_order can be interpreted as
always being CR_ANY_FREE. 😄
