arch/tile: allow building Linux with transparent huge pages enabled
The change adds some infrastructure for managing tile pmd's more generally, using pte_pmd() and pmd_pte() methods to translate pmd values to and from ptes, since on TILEPro a pmd is really just a nested structure holding a pgd (aka pte). Several existing pmd methods are moved into this framework, and a whole raft of additional pmd accessors are defined that are used by the transparent hugepage framework. The tile PTE now has a "client2" bit. The bit is used to indicate a transparent huge page is in the process of being split into subpages. This change also fixes a generic bug where the return value of the generic pmdp_splitting_flush() was incorrect. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
