[PATCHv8 31/32] thp: introduce CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGE_PAGECACHE

Kirill A. Shutemov

For file mappings, we don't deposit page tables on THP allocation
because it's not strictly required to implement split_huge_pmd(): we
can just clear pmd and let following page faults to reconstruct the
page table.

But Power makes use of deposited page table to address MMU quirk.

Let's hide THP page cache, including huge tmpfs, under separate config
option, so it can be forbidden on Power.

We can revert the patch later once solution for Power found.
