Subject: [PATCH v1 6/6] arm64: select ARCH_WANT_OPTIMIZE_HUGETLB_VMEMMAP

To use HVO, make sure that the kernel is booted with pseudo-NMI
enabled by "irqchip.gicv3_pseudo_nmi=1", as well as
"hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" unless HVO is enabled by default.

Note that HVO checks the pseudo-NMI capability and is disabled at
runtime if the capability turns out not supported. Successfully
enabling HVO should have the following:
  # dmesg | grep NMI
  GICv3: Pseudo-NMIs enabled using ...
  # sysctl vm.hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap
  vm.hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap = 1
