Cleanup patch in preparation for transparent hugepage support on s390.
Adding new architectures to the TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE config option can
make the "depends" line rather ugly, like "depends on (X86 || (S390 &&
64BIT)) && MMU".

This patch adds a HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE instead.  x86 already has
MMU "def_bool y", so the MMU check is superfluous there and
HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE can be selected in arch/x86/Kconfig.
