Currently, only x86, arm64 and s390 select ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_BPF_JIT,
the other archs do not select ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_BPF_JIT. On the archs
without ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_BPF_JIT, if we want to set bpf_jit_enable to
1 by default, the only way is to enable CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON, then
the users can not change it to 0 or 2, it seems bad for some users. We
can select ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_BPF_JIT for those archs if it is proper,
but at least for now, make BPF_JIT_DEFAULT_ON selectable can give them
a chance.

Additionally, with this patch, under !BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON, we can disable
BPF_JIT_DEFAULT_ON on the archs with ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_BPF_JIT when make
menuconfig, it seems flexible for some developers.

I think "remove BPF interpreter" is not accurate. I guess we can just say
"Enable BPF JIT by default". (also "defaultly" sounds weird to me).
