It turns out "if (__is_defined(__PAGETABLE_PMD_FOLDED))" isn't equivalent
to "#ifdef __PAGETABLE_PMD_FOLDED". (who knew!)

kconfig.h's __is_defined() expects a define of the form
"#define CONFIG_BOOGER 1". But these nop?d headers just have
"#define __PAGETABLE_PMD_FOLDED".

This means ____is_defined()'s triplet passed to __take_second_arg() is
'empty-string, 1 0' in both cases, meaning these symbols can't be used
from C. (they are always false).

asm-generic gets away with this as its using the pre-processor's
defined() macro on this, not the C __is_defined().

Add the expected '1'.

This fixes an issue with patches queued for arm64. Can it go via the arm64 tree?

I wonder why we're using __is_defined() at all on arm64. It looks like
some internal kconfig.h helper for IS_ENABLED() etc. Even if it looks
nicer, I'd rather go for an #ifdef in the arm64 set_pmd() code.

This was my fault entirely; sorry about that.

I'd wanted to ensure that we got build coverage regardless of the kernel
configuration, which was why i'd used __is_defined().

Thanks,
Mark.
