arm64: mm: always enable CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE

Commit 6d526ee26ccd ("arm64: mm: enable CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE for NUMA")
only enabled HOLES_IN_ZONE for NUMA systems because the NUMA code was
choking on the missing zone for nomap pages. This problem doesn't just
apply to NUMA systems.

If the architecture doesn't set HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID, pfn_valid() will
return true if the pfn is part of a valid sparsemem section.

When working with multiple pages, the mm code uses pfn_valid_within()
to test each page it uses within the sparsemem section is valid. On
most systems memory comes in MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES chunks which all
have valid/initialised struct pages. In this case pfn_valid_within()
is optimised out.

Systems where this isn't true (e.g. due to nomap) should set
HOLES_IN_ZONE and provide HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID so that mm tests each
page as it works with it.

Currently non-NUMA arm64 systems can't enable HOLES_IN_ZONE, leading to
a VM_BUG_ON():
