[PATCH v5 03/14] mm: introduce pgtable_has_pmd_leaves()

[Luiz Capitulino]

Currently, we have two helpers that check for PMD-sized pages but have
different names and slightly different semantics:

- has_transparent_hugepage(): the name suggests it checks if THP is
  enabled, but when CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y and the architecture
  implements this helper, it actually checks if the CPU supports
  PMD-sized pages

- thp_disabled_by_hw(): the name suggests it checks if THP is disabled
  by the hardware, but it just returns a cached value acquired with
  has_transparent_hugepage(). This helper is used in fast paths

This commit introduces a new helper called pgtable_has_pmd_leaves()
which is intended to replace both has_transparent_hugepage() and
thp_disabled_by_hw(). pgtable_has_pmd_leaves() has very clear semantics:
it returns true if the CPU supports PMD-sized pages and false otherwise.
It always returns a cached value, so it can be used in fast paths.

The new helper requires an initialization step which is performed by
pgtable_leaf_support_init(). We call pgtable_leaf_support_init() early
during boot from mm_core_init().

The next commits will convert users of both has_transparent_hugepage()
and thp_disabled_by_hw() to pgtable_has_pmd_leaves().
