mm/thp: use conventional format for boolean attributes
The conventional format for boolean attributes in sysfs is numeric ("0" or "1" followed by new-line). Any boolean attribute can then be read and written using a generic function. Using the strings "yes [no]", "[yes] no" (read), "yes" and "no" (write) will frustrate this.
