Alexandre Ghiti a861bbce27 sh: advertise gigantic page support
Patch series "Fix free/allocation of runtime gigantic pages", v8.

This series fixes sh and sparc that did not advertise their gigantic page
support and then were not able to allocate and free those pages at
runtime.  It renames MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION || CMA condition into
the more accurate CONTIG_ALLOC, since it allows the definition of
alloc_contig_range function.

Finally, it then fixes the wrong definition of ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE
config that, without MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION || CMA defined, did
not allow architectures to free boottime allocated gigantic pages although
unrelated.

This patch (of 4):

sh actually supports gigantic pages and selecting ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE
allows it to allocate and free gigantic pages at runtime.

At least sdk7786_defconfig exposes such a configuration with huge pages of
64MB, pages of 4KB and MAX_ORDER = 11: HPAGE_SHIFT (26) - PAGE_SHIFT (12)
= 14 >= MAX_ORDER (11)

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
