mm: gup: remove FOLL_SPLIT

Browse source 
Since commit 5a52c9df62 ("uprobe: use FOLL_SPLIT_PMD instead of
FOLL_SPLIT") and commit ba925fa350 ("s390/gmap: improve THP splitting")
FOLL_SPLIT has not been used anymore.  Remove the dead code.

of handling GUP on hugetlbfs will also work fine on transparent
hugepage backed mappings.
In case you can't handle compound pages if they're returned by
follow_page, the FOLL_SPLIT bit can be specified as a parameter to
follow_page, so that it will split the hugepages before returning
them.
Graceful fallback
