mm: avoid increase sizeof(struct page) due to split page table lock
Alex Thorlton noticed that some massively threaded workloads work poorly,
if THP enabled. This patchset fixes this by introducing split page table
lock for PMD tables. hugetlbfs is not covered yet.
This patchset is based on work by Naoya Horiguchi.

This patch (of 11):
CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK increases sizeof(spinlock_t) to 8 bytes. It
leads to increase sizeof(struct page) by 4 bytes on 32-bit system if split
page table lock is in use, since page->ptl shares space in union with
longs and pointers.
Let's disable split page table lock on 32-bit systems with
GENERIC_LOCKBREAK enabled.
