arm: mm: enable HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE logic
In order to implement fast_get_user_pages we need to ensure that the page
table walker is protected from page table pages being freed from under it.
This patch enables HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE, any page table pages belonging to
address spaces with multiple users will be call_rcu_sched freed. Meaning
that disabling interrupts will block the free and protect the fast gup
page walker.
