Revert "Ignore madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) for hugetlbfs-backed regions"
This reverts commit a425a638c858fd10370b573bde81df3ba500e271.
Now that the previous commit removed the "readpage" actor for hugetlb
files, read-ahead will no longer mess up the mapping, and there's no
longer any reason to treat hugetlbfs mappings specially.
