You may be right, I can't get my randconfig to set ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER
to anything other than the default. Maybe the kernel test robot has its
own config randomisation (cc'ing lkp at intel.com).
If we don't care about about this randconfig, I'm fine do drop EXPERT
from current mainline, together with the 4K/16K pages condition. The
condition only made sense if we kept the ranges in since these were
configurable (no range for 64K).
