As I have mentioned in later part of the reply, it does not really
make sense to have both arch call back as well as generic config
option checking to decide on whether a feature is enabled or not.

As we are already checking for radix_enabled() test inside function
gigantic_page_supported(), do we still need to conditionally enable
this on Radix based platforms only ?

As seen above, now that arch's decision to support this feature is not
based solely on ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE config option but also on the
availability of platform features like radix, is it a good time to have
an arch call back deciding on gigantic_page_supported() test instead of
just checking presence of config options like 

#if defined(CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE) && \
	((defined(CONFIG_MEMORY_ISOLATION) && defined(CONFIG_COMPACTION)) || \
	defined(CONFIG_CMA))

We should not have both as proposed. I mean CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE
should not be enabled unless we have MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION && CMA
and once enabled we should have arch_gigantic_page_supported() deciding for
gigantic_page_supported().
