Miaohe Lin c090868f59 Revert "hugetlb: make hugetlb depends on SYSFS or SYSCTL" 
Commit f8142cf94d ("hugetlb: make hugetlb depends on SYSFS or SYSCTL")
added dependency on SYSFS or SYSCTL but hugetlb can be used without SYSFS
or SYSCTL.  So this dependency is wrong and should be removed.

For users with CONFIG_SYSFS or CONFIG_SYSCTL on, there should be no
difference.  For users have CONFIG_SYSFS and CONFIG_SYSCTL both
undefined, hugetlbfs can still works perfectly well through cmdline
except a possible kismet warning[1] when select CONFIG_HUGETLBFS. 
IMHO, it might not worth a backport.

This reverts commit f8142cf94d.  It
overlooked the scenario of using hugetlb through boot parameters when
it was submitted.

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 reStructuredText 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.
