Aneesh Kumar K.V 787d563b86 mm/debug_vm_pgtable: fix kernel crash by checking for THP support
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!
    cpu 0x61: Vector: 700 (Program Check) at [c000000ff948f860]

Check for THP support correctly

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
