Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] mm/readahead: Limit page cache size in page_cache_ra_order()

In page_cache_ra_order(), the maximal order of the page cache to be
allocated shouldn't be larger than MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER. Otherwise,
it's possible the large page cache can't be supported by xarray when
the corresponding xarray entry is split.

For example, HPAGE_PMD_ORDER is 13 on ARM64 when the base page size
is 64KB. The PMD-sized page cache can't be supported by xarray.
