Systems with hotplug may provide an advisement value on what the
memblock size should be. Probe this value when the rest of the
configuration values are considered.
The new heuristic is as follows
1) set_memory_block_size_order value if already set (cmdline param)
2) minimum block size if memory is less than large block limit
3) [new] hotplug advise: lesser of advise value or memory alignment
4) Max block size if system is bare-metal
5) Largest size that aligns to end of memory.

"size_order" is a very weird name. Just return a size?
memory_block_advised_max_size()
or sth like that?

This looks like duplicate code wit the loop below.
Could we refactored it into something like:
advised_max_size = memory_block_advised_max_size();
if (!advised_max_size) {
bz = MAX_BLOCK_SIZE;
if (!boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_HYPERVISOR)
goto done,
} else {
bz = max(min(advised_max_size, MAX_BLOCK_SIZE), MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE);
}
for (; bz > MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE; bz >>= 1) {
if (IS_ALIGNED(boot_mem_end, bz))
break;
