Christian Borntraeger fdd6696846 genwqe: Fix size check
Calling the test program genwqe_cksum with the default buffer size of
2MB triggers the following kernel warning on s390:

turns out the check in __genwqe_alloc_consistent uses "> MAX_ORDER"
while the mm code uses ">= MAX_ORDER". Fix genwqe.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
