kho: fix size calculation in kho_preserved_memory_reserve()

Browse source

kho_preserved_memory_reserve() calculates the size of a preservation by
doing 1 << (order + PAGE_SHIFT). Since the '1' is a 32-bit integer, it
can only be shifted by 31. That is, it will only work for preservations
up to 2 GiB. Larger preservations will trigger undefined behaviour.

While preservations larger than 2 GiB can't be obtained via folios
currently, they can be obtained via kho_preserve_pages().

For example, memblock reserve_mem uses kho_preserve_pages().
Reservations larger than 2 GiB are valid and will trigger this bug if
properly aligned.

Fix it by using 1UL for shifting.
