I think it's unlikely that such low ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER is ever used.

Judging by c88c545bf320 ("sparc64: Add FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER and default to
13") log the option to override MAX_ORDER was added to "request large (32M)
contiguous memory during boot for creating IOTSB backing store", so it was
about to increase MAX_ORDER.

Generally, we may restrict sparc::ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER to be above 7 and
drop this check entirely
