Subject: [PATCH V2 1/3] arm64/mm: Drop __HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_PTEP_GET

Platform specific huge_ptep_get() is required only when fetching the huge
PTE involves more than just dereferencing the page table pointer. This is
not the case on arm64 platform. Hence huge_ptep_pte() can be dropped along
with it's __HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_PTEP_GET subscription.
