After removing READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS check in file_thp_enabled(),
khugepaged and MADV_COLLAPSE can run on FSes with PMD THP pagecache
support even without READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS enabled. Remove the Kconfig first
so that no one can use READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS as upcoming commits remove
mapping->nr_thps, which its safe guard mechanism relies on.
