[PATCH 1/2] powerpc/mm: Enable HugeTLB page migration

This enables HugeTLB page migration for PPC64_BOOK3S systems which implement
HugeTLB page at the PMD level. It enables the kernel configuration option
CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_HUGEPAGE_MIGRATION by default which turns on the function
hugepage_migration_supported() during migration. After the recent changes
to the PTE format, HugeTLB page migration happens successfully.
