That's pretty nasty. You're using max() to hide underflow in the
subtraction to clamp the value to zero. And you don't need ilog2()
because we have the log of the block size in the superblock already.

	int			min_order = 0;
	.....
	if (mp->m_sb.sb_blocksize > PAGE_SIZE)
		min_order = mp->m_sb.sb_blocklog - PAGE_SHIFT;

But, really why recalculate this -constant- on every inode
allocation?  That's a very hot path, so this should be set in the
M_IGEO(mp) structure (mp->m_ino_geo) at mount time and then the code
is simply:

	mapping_set_folio_orders(VFS_I(ip)->i_mapping,
			M_IGEO(mp)->min_folio_order, MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER);

We already access the M_IGEO(mp) structure every inode allocation,
so there's little in way of additional cost here....

This should just issue a warning if bs > ps.

	if (mp->m_sb.sb_blocksize > PAGE_SIZE) {
  		xfs_warn(mp,
"EXPERIMENTAL: Filesystem with Large Block Size (%d bytes) enabled.",
			mp->m_sb.sb_blocksize);
