mm: Move change_prot_numa outside CONFIG_ARCH_USES_NUMA_PROT_NONE
change_prot_numa should work even if _PAGE_NUMA != _PAGE_PROTNONE. On archs like ppc64 that don't use _PAGE_PROTNONE and also have a separate page table outside linux pagetable, we just need to make sure that when calling change_prot_numa we flush the hardware page table entry so that next page access result in a numa fault. We still need to make sure we use the numa faulting logic only when CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING is set. This implies the migrate-on-fault (Lazy migration) via mbind will only work if CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING is set.
