ext4: add new attr pointer attr_mb_order
The s_mb_best_avail_max_trim_order is of type unsigned int, and has a range of values well beyond the normal use of the mb_order. Although the mballoc code is careful enough that large numbers don't matter there, but this can mislead the sysadmin into thinking that it's normal to set such values. Hence add a new attr_id attr_mb_order with values in the range [0, 64] to avoid storing garbage values and make us more resilient to surprises in the future.
