This adds a check to hugepage_madvise(), to refuse MADV_HUGEPAGE if
VM_NOHUGEPAGE is set in mm->def_flags.  On s390, the VM_NOHUGEPAGE flag
will be set in mm->def_flags for kvm processes, to prevent any future thp
mappings.  In order to also prevent MADV_HUGEPAGE on such an mm,
hugepage_madvise() should check mm->def_flags.
