numa: fix /proc/<pid>/numa_maps for THP
In gather_pte_stats() a THP pmd is cast into a pte, which is wrong because the layouts may differ depending on the architecture. On s390 this will lead to inaccurate numa_maps accounting in /proc because of misguided pte_present() and pte_dirty() checks on the fake pte. On other architectures pte_present() and pte_dirty() may work by chance, but there may be an issue with direct-access (dax) mappings w/o underlying struct pages when HAVE_PTE_SPECIAL is set and THP is available. In vm_normal_page() the fake pte will be checked with pte_special() and because there is no "special" bit in a pmd, this will always return false and the VM_PFNMAP | VM_MIXEDMAP checking will be skipped. On dax mappings w/o struct pages, an invalid struct page pointer would then be returned that can crash the kernel. This patch fixes the numa_maps THP handling by introducing new "_pmd" variants of the can_gather_numa_stats() and vm_normal_page() functions.
