arm64: mm: enable per pmd page table lock
Switch from per mm_struct to per pmd page table lock by enabling ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK. This provides better granularity for large system. I'm not sure if there is contention on mm->page_table_lock. Given the option comes at no cost (apart from initializing more spin locks), why not enable it now. We only do so when pmd is not folded, so we don't mistakenly call pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() on pud or p4d in pgd_pgtable_alloc().
