This moves the #ifdef in C code to a Kconfig dependency. Also we move the
gigantic_page_supported() function to be arch specific. This gives arch to
conditionally enable runtime allocation of gigantic huge page. Architectures
like ppc64 supports different gigantic huge page size (16G and 1G) based on the
translation mode selected. This provides an opportunity for ppc64 to enable
runtime allocation only w.r.t 1G hugepage.

No functional change in this patch.

* Fix build error with x86
* Update the Kconfig change to match the C #ifdef

* [PATCH v3 2/2] powerpc/mm/hugetlb: Add support for 1G huge pages

POWER9 supports hugepages of size 2M and 1G in radix MMU mode. This patch
enables the usage of 1G page size for hugetlbfs. This also update the helper
such we can do 1G page allocation at runtime.

We still don't enable 1G page size on DD1 version. This is to avoid doing
workaround mentioned in commit: 6d3a0379ebdc8 (powerpc/mm: Add
radix__tlb_flush_pte_p9_dd1()

I think this patch is OK, but it's very confusing because it doesn't
mention that it's only talking about *generic* gigantic page support.

We have existing support for gigantic pages on powerpc, on several
platforms. This patch appears to break that, but I think doesn't in
practice?

So can you make it a bit clearer in the commit message, and the code,
that this is only about enabling the generic gigantic page support, and
is unrelated to the arch-specific gigantic page support.

cheers

I think this patch is OK, but it's very confusing because it doesn't
mention that it's only talking about *generic* gigantic page support.

We have existing support for gigantic pages on powerpc, on several
platforms. This patch appears to break that, but I think doesn't in
practice?

So can you make it a bit clearer in the commit message, and the code,
that this is only about enabling the generic gigantic page support, and
is unrelated to the arch-specific gigantic page support.

cheers

gigantic page with size 1G alone ?

What about 16G pages on pseries.

And all the other gigantic page sizes that Book3E supports?

None of that is supported w.r.t runtime allocation of hugepages. ie, we 
cannot echo nr_hugepages w.r.t them.  For 16GB i am not sure it make 
sense, because we will rarely get such large contiguous region. W.r.t 
page size supported for Book3E, may be we can. But I don't have a 
facility to test those. Hence didn't include that.

None of that is supported w.r.t runtime allocation of hugepages. ie, we 
cannot echo nr_hugepages w.r.t them.  For 16GB i am not sure it make 
sense, because we will rarely get such large contiguous region. W.r.t 
page size supported for Book3E, may be we can. But I don't have a 
facility to test those. Hence didn't include that.
