store.

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.

This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
a value of 13 means that the largest free memory block is 2^12 pages.
