[PATCH 0/5] hugepage migration fixes (v4)

[Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com>]

This is the ver.4 of hugepage migration fix patchset.

Major changes from ver.3 are:
- to drop locking from follow_huge_pud() and follow_huge_addr() in patch 2,
  which was buggy and is not necessary now because they don't support FOLL_GET,
- follow_huge_pmd(FOLL_GET) can pin and return tail pages,
- and I fixed bugs accidentally introduced in patch 3 and 5.
Others are code improvements and comment/description fixes.

Two related topics (not included in this series but to be discussed/done)
- follow_huge_pmd() explicitly uses pmd_lockptr() instead of huge_pte_lock().
  This point shed light on the subtlety in huge_page_size == PMD_HUGE check
  in huge_pte_lockptr(). This seems to make no runtime problem now, but might
  look fragile for example when pmd is folded (where PUD_SIZE == PMD_SIZE)
  or when hugepage in your architecture is not bound by page table (where
  hugepage size happens to equal with PMD_SIZE.)
- code around is_hugetlb_entry_migration() and is_hugetlb_entry_hwpoisoned()
  is not beautiful or optimized. Cleanup is necessary.

This patchset is based on mmotm-2014-09-09-14-42 and shows no regression
in libhugetlbfs test.
