Architectures can have CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE enabled but
no THP support enabled based on platforms. For ex: with 4K
PAGE_SIZE ppc64 supports THP only with radix translation.
This results in below crash when running with hash translation and
4K PAGE_SIZE.
kernel BUG at arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/hash-4k.h:140!
