hugetlb: fix nr_pmds accounting with shared page tables
We account HugeTLB's shared page table to all processes who share it. The accounting happens during huge_pmd_share(). If somebody populates pud entry under us, we should decrease pagetable's refcount and decrease nr_pmds of the process. By mistake, I increase nr_pmds again in this case. :-/ It will lead to "BUG: non-zero nr_pmds on freeing mm: 2" on process' exit. Let's fix this by increasing nr_pmds only when we're sure that the page table will be used.
