mm: turn USE_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS / USE_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS into Kconfig options
Patch series "mm: split PTE/PMD PT table Kconfig cleanups+clarifications".
This series is a follow up to the fixes:
"[PATCH v1 0/2] mm/hugetlb: fix hugetlb vs. core-mm PT locking"
When working on the fixes, I wondered why 8xx is fine (-> never uses split
PT locks) and how PT locking even works properly with PMD page table
sharing (-> always requires split PMD PT locks).
Let's improve the split PT lock detection, make hugetlb properly depend on
it and make 8xx bail out if it would ever get enabled by accident.
As an alternative to patch #3 we could extend the Kconfig
SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS option from patch #2 -- but enforcing it closer to the
code that actually implements it feels a bit nicer for documentation
purposes, and there is no need to actually disable it because it should
always be disabled (!SMP).
Did a bunch of cross-compilations to make sure that split PTE/PMD PT locks
are still getting used where we would expect them.

This patch (of 3):
Let's clean that up a bit and prepare for depending on
CONFIG_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCKS in other Kconfig options.
More cleanups would be reasonable (like the arch-specific "depends on" for
CONFIG_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS), but we'll leave that for another day.
