Subject: [RFC v2 7/8] shmem: add high order page support

To support high order block sizes we want to support a high order
folios so to treat the larger block atomically. Add support for this
for tmpfs mounts.

Right now this produces no functional changes since we only allow one
single block size, matching the PAGE_SIZE and so the order is always 0.
