[PATCH] make CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE mirror CONFIG_HUGETLBFS
At present you can set CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE and not CONFIG_HUGETLBFS, which give the kernel low-level hugepage support, but no userspace API with which to access it. And with the recent hugetlbfs-accounting fix, the low-level code needs functions which are in hugetlbfs, so CONFIG_HUGETLBFS=n, CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE=y doesn't even link. So we flip things around: CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE is set if CONFIG_HUGETLBFS is set and CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE is unset if CONFIG_HUGETLBFS is unset. The CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE option hence disappears from the per-arch configuration menus.
