I don't think we need ifdef here. mapping_can_have_hugepages() will be 0
compile-time, if CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PAGECACHE is not defined and
compiler should optimize out thp case.

nr = hpagecache_nr_pages(page) can be moved below if (must_use_thp).
hpagecache_nr_pages(page) evaluates to 0 for small pages.
