mm: Some arch may want to use HPAGE_PMD related values as variables
With next generation power processor, we are having a new mmu model [1] that require us to maintain a different linux page table format. Inorder to support both current and future ppc64 systems with a single kernel we need to make sure kernel can select between different page table format at runtime. With the new MMU (radix MMU) added, we will have two different pmd hugepage size 16MB for hash model and 2MB for Radix model. Hence make HPAGE_PMD related values as a variable. Actual conversion of HPAGE_PMD to a variable for ppc64 happens in a followup patch. [1] http://ibm.biz/power-isa3 (Needs registration). Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
