Daniel Jordan ecd0965069 mm: make deferred init's max threads arch-specific
Using padata during deferred init has only been tested on x86, so for now
limit it to this architecture.

If another arch wants this, it can find the max thread limit that's best
for it and override deferred_page_init_max_threads().

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
