__folio_migrate_mapping() increments MTHP_STAT_NR_ANON for the destination
folio when `folio_test_anon(folio) && folio_test_large(folio)` is true.
However, hugetlb folios satisfy both conditions despite having a
completely separate accounting system — they use hugetlb_add_anon_rmap()
which does not touch mTHP stats, and their free path also bypasses the
mTHP decrement in __free_pages_prepare().
This causes MTHP_STAT_NR_ANON to be incremented on each hugetlb migration
without a corresponding decrement, permanently inflating the nr_anon
counter.
Add a !folio_test_hugetlb() check to __folio_migrate_mapping() so that
only actual mTHP folios are counted.
