[PATCH v2 3/5] mm: Default implementation of arch_wants_pte_order()

[Ryan Roberts <ryan.roberts@arm.com>]

arch_wants_pte_order() can be overridden by the arch to return the
preferred folio order for pte-mapped memory. This is useful as some
architectures (e.g. arm64) can coalesce TLB entries when the physical
memory is suitably contiguous.

The first user for this hint will be FLEXIBLE_THP, which aims to
allocate large folios for anonymous memory to reduce page faults and
other per-page operation costs.

Here we add the default implementation of the function, used when the
architecture does not define it, which returns the order corresponding
to 64K.
