I don't really like how this moves the inline version from asm-generic into
a __weak function here. I think it would be better to either stop
using asm-generic/hugetlb.h
on s390, or enclose the generic definition in

#ifndef huge_pte_clear

and then override by defining a macro in s390 as we do in other files
in asm-generic.
