Subject: parisc: Drop unused MADV_xxxK_PAGES flags from asm/mman.h

From: Helge Deller <deller@xxxxxx>

commit dcbf0d299c00ed4f82ea8d6e359ad88a5182f9b8 upstream.

Drop the MADV_xxK_PAGES flags, which were never used and were from a proposed
API which was never integrated into the generic Linux kernel code.
