lib/ioremap.c: add huge I/O map capability interfaces
Add ioremap_pud_enabled() and ioremap_pmd_enabled(), which return 1 when
I/O mappings with pud/pmd are enabled on the kernel.
ioremap_huge_init() calls arch_ioremap_pud_supported() and
arch_ioremap_pmd_supported() to initialize the capabilities at boot-time.
A new kernel option "nohugeiomap" is also added, so that user can disable
the huge I/O map capabilities when necessary.
