mm: move MAX_FOLIO_ORDER definition to mmzone.h

Patch series "mm: Eliminate fake head pages from vmemmap optimization",
v7.

This series removes "fake head pages" from the HugeTLB vmemmap
optimization (HVO) by changing how tail pages encode their relationship to
the head page.

It simplifies compound_head() and page_ref_add_unless().  Both are in the
hot path.

Background
==========

HVO reduces memory overhead by freeing vmemmap pages for HugeTLB pages and
remapping the freed virtual addresses to a single physical page. 
Previously, all tail page vmemmap entries were remapped to the first
vmemmap page (containing the head struct page), creating "fake heads" -
tail pages that appear to have PG_head set when accessed through the
deduplicated vmemmap.

This required special handling in compound_head() to detect and work
around fake heads, adding complexity and overhead to a very hot path.

New Approach
============

For architectures/configs where sizeof(struct page) is a power of 2 (the
common case), this series changes how position of the head page is encoded
in the tail pages.

Instead of storing a pointer to the head page, the ->compound_info
(renamed from ->compound_head) now stores a mask.

The mask can be applied to any tail page's virtual address to compute the
head page address.  Critically, all tail pages of the same order now have
identical compound_info values, regardless of which compound page they
belong to.

The key insight is that all tail pages of the same order now have
identical compound_info values, regardless of which compound page they
belong to.

In v7, these shared tail pages are allocated per-zone.  This ensures that
zone information (stored in page->flags) is correct even for shared tail
pages, removing the need for the special-casing in page_zonenum() proposed
in earlier versions.

To support per-zone shared pages for boot-allocated gigantic pages, the
vmemmap population is deferred until zones are initialized.  This
simplifies the logic significantly and allows the removal of
vmemmap_undo_hvo().

Benefits
========

1. Simplified compound_head(): No fake head detection needed, can be
   implemented in a branchless manner.

2. Simplified page_ref_add_unless(): RCU protection removed since there's
   no race with fake head remapping.

3. Cleaner architecture: The shared tail pages are truly read-only and
   contain valid tail page metadata.

If sizeof(struct page) is not power-of-2, there are no functional changes.
HVO is not supported in this configuration.

I had hoped to see performance improvement, but my testing thus far has
shown either no change or only a slight improvement within the noise.

This patch (of 17):

Move MAX_FOLIO_ORDER definition from mm.h to mmzone.h.

This is preparation for adding the vmemmap_tails array to struct zone,
which requires MAX_FOLIO_ORDER to be available in mmzone.h.
