Naturally, UP systems do not have to worry about concurrent GUP fast operations. However, CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU is also available even on a UP system, so a future pure-RCU page table walker requires MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE to be enabled on UP, even if concurrent GUP fast is not possible there. To enable future pure-RCU page table walkers, enable MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE unconditionally. With this change, it is no longer necessary to have !CONFIG_SMP pgtable_free_tlb(), so also remove this now dead code. This forms part of an overall effort to switch every architecture to this mode.
