This appears to help cached git diff performance by about 5% on a
POWER9 (with 32MB dentry cache hash).

  Profiling git diff dTLB misses with a vanilla kernel:

  81.75%  git      [kernel.vmlinux]    [k] __d_lookup_rcu
   7.21%  git      [kernel.vmlinux]    [k] strncpy_from_user
   1.77%  git      [kernel.vmlinux]    [k] find_get_entry
   1.59%  git      [kernel.vmlinux]    [k] kmem_cache_free

            40,168      dTLB-miss
       0.100342754 seconds time elapsed

After this patch (and the subsequent powerpc HUGE_VMAP patches), the
dentry cache hash gets mapped with 2MB pages:

             2,987      dTLB-miss
       0.095933138 seconds time elapsed

elapsed time improvement isn't too scientific but seems consistent,
TLB misses certainly improves an order of magnitude. My laptop
takes a lot of misses here too, so x86 would be interesting to test,
I think it should just work there.
