mm/hmm: make HMM_MIRROR an implicit option
Make HMM_MIRROR an option that is selected by drivers wanting to use it instead of a user visible option as it is just a low-level implementation detail.

- Select HMM_MIRROR if you want to mirror range of the CPU page table of a
- process into a device page table. Here, mirror means "keep synchronized".
- Prerequisites: the device must provide the ability to write-protect its
- page tables (at PAGE_SIZE granularity), and must be able to recover from
- the resulting potential page faults.
