arm64/mm: drop __HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_PTEP_GET
Patch series "mm/hugetlb: Add some new generic fallbacks", v3.
This series adds the following new generic fallbacks. Before that it
drops __HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_PTEP_GET from arm64 platform.
1. is_hugepage_only_range()
2. arch_clear_hugepage_flags()
After this arm (32 bit) remains the sole platform defining it's own
huge_ptep_get() via __HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_PTEP_GET.
This patch (of 3):
Platform specific huge_ptep_get() is required only when fetching the huge
PTE involves more than just dereferencing the page table pointer. This is
not the case on arm64 platform. Hence huge_ptep_pte() can be dropped
along with it's __HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_PTEP_GET subscription. Before that, it
updates the generic huge_ptep_get() with READ_ONCE() which will prevent
known page table issues with THP on arm64.
