Enabling CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE on an R10000-family processor on at least
SGI IP27 and IP30 machines creates problems, including random SIGSEGV and
SIGBUS signals to processes that attempt to use huge pages. Until someone with
deeper TLB knowledge on R10K can attempt to solve this problem, marking
CPU_SUPPORTS_HUGEPAGES as BROKEN seems like a sensible thing to do.
