This series enables THP migration on arm64 via ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION.
But first this modifies all existing THP helpers like pmd_present() and
pmd_trans_huge() etc per expected generic memory semantics as concluded
from a previous discussion here.

https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/10/9/220

This series is based on v5.9-rc1.

Changes in V1:

- Used new PMD_PRESENT_INVALID (bit 59) to represent invalidated PMD state per Catalin

Changes in RFC V2: (https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-mm/list/?series=302965)

- Used PMD_TABLE_BIT to represent splitting PMD state per Catalin

Changes in RFC V1: (https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-mm/list/?series=138797)
