azure: Set arm64 CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_ALWAYS=n

[Tim Gardner]

SRU Justification

[Impact]
This request for all the ARM images Kernel have config updated . There is performance issues due to these config setting and after troubleshooting MSFT team found below two settings to update .
Recommended
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_ALWAYS=n
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_MADVISE=y

[Test Case]
Microsoft tested

[Where things could go wrong]
Performance could decrease for some workloads.

[Ubuntu Kernel Bot (ubuntu-kernel-bot)]

This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-azure/5.15.0-1020.25 kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-jammy' to 'verification-done-jammy'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-jammy' to 'verification-failed-jammy'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.
