thp, x86: introduce HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE
Cleanup patch in preparation for transparent hugepage support on s390. Adding new architectures to the TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE config option can make the "depends" line rather ugly, like "depends on (X86 || (S390 && 64BIT)) && MMU". This patch adds a HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE instead. x86 already has MMU "def_bool y", so the MMU check is superfluous there and HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE can be selected in arch/x86/Kconfig.
