In case redis starts and find that THP is enabled ("always"), instead
of printing a log message, which might go unnoticed, redis will try to
disable it (just for the redis process).
Note: it looks like on self-bulit kernels THP is likely be set to "always" by default.
Some discuss about THP side effect on Linux:
according to http://www.antirez.com/news/84, we can see that
redis latency spikes are caused by linux kernel THP feature.
I have tested on E3-2650 v3, and found that 2M huge page costs
about 0.25ms to fix COW page fault.
Add a new config 'disable-thp', the recommended setting is 'yes',
(default) the redis tries to disable THP by prctl syscall. But
users who really want THP can set it to "no"
Thanks to Oran & Yossi for suggestions.

We introduce the distinction between slow and fast commands since those
are two different sources of latency. An O(1) or O(log N) command without
side effects (can't trigger deletion of large objects as a side effect of
its execution) if delayed is a symptom of inherent latency of the system.
A non-fast command (commands that may run large O(N) computations) if
delayed may just mean that the user is executing slow operations.
The advices LATENCY should provide in this two different cases are
different, so we log the two classes of commands in a separated way.
