Subject: powerpc: gup_hugepte() support THP based tail recounting

From: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com>

commit 3526741f0964c88bc2ce511e1078359052bf225b upstream.

Up to this point the code assumed old refcounting for hugepages (pre-thp).
This updates the code directly to the thp mapcount tail page refcounting.
