Subject: [PATCH] mm/hugetlb: Fix build with !ARCH_WANT_HUGE_PMD_SHARE

want_pmd_share() is undefined with !ARCH_WANT_HUGE_PMD_SHARE since it's put
by accident into a "#ifdef ARCH_WANT_HUGE_PMD_SHARE" block.  Moving it out
won't work either since vma_shareable() is only defined within the block.
Define it for !ARCH_WANT_HUGE_PMD_SHARE instead.
