[PATCH 2/3] mm: hugetlb: introduce arch_free_vmemmap_page

We register bootmem info for vmemmap pages when boot on x86-64, so
the vmemmap pages must be freed by using free_bootmem_page(). But
on some other architectures, we do not need bootmem info. In this
case, free_reserved_page() is enough to free vmemmap pages.
Currently, only x86-64 need free_bootmem_page(), so introduce a
default arch_free_vmemmap_page() which use free_reserved_page()
to free vmemmap pages directly. On x86-64, we can implement
arch_free_vmemmap_page() to override the default behavior.
