[PATCH v4 8/8] mm: make PT_RECLAIM depends on MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE

From: Qi Zheng <zhengqi.arch at bytedance.com>

The PT_RECLAIM can work on all architectures that support
MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE, except for those that have selected
HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE,so make PT_RECLAIM depends on
MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE && !HAVE_ARCH_TLB_REMOVE_TABLE.

BTW, change PT_RECLAIM to be enabled by default, since nobody should want
to turn it off.
