[POWERPC] Enable CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER for all PowerPC, and make selectable

This enables the FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER Kconfig option for all PowerPC
systems.  Previously, it was enabled only for 64-bit systems.  We also
make the option selectable from the menu, so that the user can specify
different values.  This is useful for 32-bit systems that need to
allocate more than 4MB of physically contiguous memory.

The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
pages. This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
keeps in the memory allocator. If you need to allocate very large
blocks of physically contiguous memory, then you may need to
increase this value.
This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
a value of 11 means that the largest free memory block is 2^10 pages.
The page size is not necessarily 4KB. For example, on 64-bit
systems, 64KB pages can be enabled via CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES. Keep
this in mind when choosing a value for this option.
