If the size of "struct page" is not the power of two but with the feature
of minimizing overhead of struct page associated with each HugeTLB is
enabled, then the vmemmap pages of HugeTLB will be corrupted after
remapping (panic is about to happen in theory). But this only exists when
!CONFIG_MEMCG && !CONFIG_SLUB on x86_64. However, it is not a conventional
configuration nowadays. So it is not a real word issue, just the result
of a code review. But we have to prevent anyone from configuring that
combined configurations. In order to avoid many checks like "is_power_of_2
(sizeof(struct page))" through mm/hugetlb_vmemmap.c. Introduce a new macro
CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE_HAS_OPTIMIZE_VMEMMAP to represent the size of struct
page is power of two and CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE_OPTIMIZE_VMEMMAP is
configured. Then make the codes of this feature depends on this new macro.
Then we could prevent anyone do any unexpected configurations. A new
autoconf_ext.h is introduced as well, which serves as an extension for
autoconf.h since those special configurations (e.g.
CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE_HAS_OPTIMIZE_VMEMMAP here) are rely on the autoconf.h
(generated from Kconfig), so we cannot embed those configurations into
Kconfig. After this change, it would be easy if someone want to do the
similar thing (add a new CONFIG) in the future.
