[PATCH v2 4/7] mips: mm: enable MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE

From: Qi Zheng <zhengqi.arch at bytedance.com>
On a 64-bit system, madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) may cause a large number of
empty PTE page table pages (such as 100GB+). To resolve this problem,
first enable MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE to prepare for enabling the
PT_RECLAIM feature, which resolves this problem.
