[PATCH v3] mm/huge_memory: prevent THP_ZERO_PAGE_ALLOC increased twice

[Liu Shixin <liushixin2@huawei.com>]

Since user who read THP_ZERO_PAGE_ALLOC may be more concerned about the
huge zero pages that are really allocated using for thp and can indicated
the times of calling huge_zero_page_shrinker. It is misleading to increase
twice if two threads call get_huge_zero_page concurrently. Don't increase
the value if the huge page is not really used.

Update Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst together.
