Some architecture would like to be triggered when a memory area is moved
through the mremap system call.

This patch is introducing a new arch_remap mm hook which is placed in the
path of mremap, and is called before the old area is unmapped (and the
arch_unmap hook is called).

To no break the build, this patch adds the empty hook definition to the
architectures that were not using the generic hook's definition.

So instead of spreading these empty prototypes around mmu_context.h 
files, why not add something like this to the PPC definition:

 #define __HAVE_ARCH_REMAP

and define the empty prototype for everyone else? It's a bit like how 
the __HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_* namespace works.

That should shrink this patch considerably.

Thanks,
