Let's reject them early, which in turn makes folio_alloc_gigantic() reject
them properly.

To avoid converting from order to nr_pages, let's just add MAX_FOLIO_ORDER
and calculate MAX_FOLIO_NR_PAGES based on that.

Some nits, but overall LGTM so:

Possibly not worth it for a one off, but be nice to have this as a helper function, like:

static bool is_valid_order(gfp_t gfp_mask, unsigned int order)
{
	return !(gfp_mask & __GFP_COMP) || order <= MAX_FOLIO_ORDER;
}

Then makes this:

	if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!is_valid_order(gfp_mask, order)))
		return -EINVAL;

Kinda self-documenting!
