mm: make SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS depend on SMP
SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS depends on "NR_CPUS >= 4". Unfortunately, that
evaluates to true if there is no NR_CPUS configuration option. This
results in CONFIG_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS=y for mac_defconfig. This in turn
causes the m68k "q800" and "virt" machines to crash in qemu if debugging
options are enabled.
Making CONFIG_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS dependent on the existence of NR_CPUS does
not work since a dependency on the existence of a numeric Kconfig entry
always evaluates to false. Example:
config HAVE_NO_NR_CPUS
def_bool y
depends on !NR_CPUS
After adding this to a Kconfig file, "make defconfig" includes:
$ grep NR_CPUS .config
CONFIG_NR_CPUS=64
CONFIG_HAVE_NO_NR_CPUS=y
Defining NR_CPUS for m68k does not help either since many architectures
define NR_CPUS only for SMP configurations.
Make SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS depend on SMP instead to solve the problem.
