Muchun Song 84a212a72c mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: fix a race between vmemmap pmd split
commit 3ce2c24cb6 upstream.

The local variable @page in __split_vmemmap_huge_pmd() to obtain a pmd
page without holding page_table_lock may possiblely get the page table
page instead of a huge pmd page.

The effect may be in set_pte_at() since we may pass an invalid page
struct, if set_pte_at() wants to access the page struct (e.g.
CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_CHECK is enabled), it may crash the kernel.

So fix it.  And inline __split_vmemmap_huge_pmd() since it only has one
user.
