Subject: [183/264] s390: gup_huge_pmd() support THP tail recounting

3.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@...hat.com>

commit 220a2eb228d032acde60e9fd044ca802706ff583 upstream.

Up to this point the code assumed old refcounting for hugepages (pre-thp).
This updates the code directly to the thp mapcount tail page refcounting.
