xtensa: reword ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER prompt and help text

Browse Source 
The prompt and help text of ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER are not even close to
describe this configuration option.

Update both to actually describe what this option does.

int "Order of maximal physically contiguous allocations"
default "10"
help
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.
The kernel page allocator limits the size of maximal physically
contiguous allocations. The limit is called MAX_ORDER and it
defines the maximal power of two of number of pages that can be
allocated as a single contiguous block. This option allows
overriding the default setting when ability to allocate very
large blocks of physically contiguous memory is required.
Don't change if unsure.
