mm/page_owner: clamp read count to PAGE_SIZE
The (root-only) page owner read might allocate a large size of memory with a large read count. Allocation fails can easily occur when doing high order allocations. Clamp buffer size to PAGE_SIZE to avoid arbitrary size allocation and avoid allocation fails due to high order allocation.
