Subject: mm/debug_vm_pgtable: fix kernel crash by checking for THP support
Architectures can have CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE enabled but no THP
support enabled based on platforms. For ex: with 4K PAGE_SIZE ppc64
supports THP only with radix translation.
This results in below crash when running with hash translation and 4K
PAGE_SIZE.
