Subject: revert "s390/mm: make hugepages_supported a boot time decision"

Heiko noticed that the current check for hugepage support on s390 is a
little bit to harsh as systems which do not support will crash.  The
reason is that pageblock_order can now get negative when we set
HPAGE_SHIFT to 0.  To avoid all this and to avoid opening another can of
worms with enabling HUGETLB_PAGE_SIZE_VARIABLE I think it would be best to
simply allow architectures to define their own hugepages_supported().

Revert bea41197ead3e0 ("s390/mm: make hugepages_supported a boot time
decision") in preparation.
