SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS already depends on "NR_CPUS >= 4", but that evaluates

This results in CONFIG_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS=y for mac_defconfig.
This in turn causes the m68k "q800" machine to crash in qemu.
Oh, that's why my compile tests still worked ... I even removed the additional NR_CPUS check, assuming it's not required ...
Thanks for debugging and fixing!

Apparently it wasn't that simple :-(. 0-day reports a build failure
with s390 builds.
arch/s390/mm/gmap.c:357:16: error: implicit declaration of function 'pmd_pgtable_page'.
Turns out that
depends on NR_CPUS && NR_CPUS >= 4
doesn't work and disables SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS even if NR_CPUS _is_ defined.
I have no idea how to declare the dependency correctly.
Sorry, I did not expect that.
