[PATCH 2/3] Add VM_INIT_DEF_MASK and PRCTL_THP_DISABLE

[Alex Thorlton <athorlton@sgi.com>]

This patch adds a VM_INIT_DEF_MASK, to allow us to set the default flags
for VMs.  It also adds a prctl control which alllows us to set the THP
disable bit in mm->def_flags so that VMs will pick up the setting as
they are created.
