With Kirill's patch the range became '13 63', so I don't see why randconfig
would set ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER to 14.

I don't think architectures should mess with MAX_ORDER unless strictly
necessary. Having an integer config symbol with sensible defaults is enough
to ensure that MAX_ORDER can fit a PMD page.

I really doubt anyone should ever override that default in their kernel
builds.
