    arch: fix has_transparent_hugepage() · fd8cfd30

    I've just discovered that the useful-sounding has_transparent_hugepage()
    is actually an architecture-dependent minefield: on some arches it only
    builds if CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y, on others it's also there when
    not, but on some of those (arm and arm64) it then gives the wrong
    answer; and on mips alone it's marked __init, which would crash if
    called later (but so far it has not been called later).
    
    Straighten this out: make it available to all configs, with a sensible
    default in asm-generic/pgtable.h, removing its definitions from those
    arches (arc, arm, arm64, sparc, tile) which are served by the default,
    adding #define has_transparent_hugepage has_transparent_hugepage to
    those (mips, powerpc, s390, x86) which need to override the default at
    runtime, and removing the __init from mips (but maybe that kind of code
    should be avoided after init: set a static variable the first time it's
    called).
