mm/huge_memory: optimize and simplify folio stat update after split

The loop executed after a successful folio split currently has two
combined responsibilities:

  * updating statistics for the new folios
  * determining the folio for the next split iteration.

This commit refactors the logic to directly calculate and update folio
statistics, eliminating the need for the iteration step.

We can do this because all necessary information is already available:

  * All resulting new folios have the same order, which is @split_order.
  * The exact number of new folios can be calculated directly using
    @old_order and @split_order.
  * The folio for the subsequent split is simply the one containing
    @split_at.

By leveraging this knowledge, we can achieve the stat update more cleanly
and efficiently without the looping logic.
