Subject: [PATCH] mm, hugetlb: use list_for_each_entry in region_xxx

Commit 7b24d8616be3 ("mm, hugetlb: fix race in region tracking") has
changed to use a per resv_map spinlock to serialize against any
concurrent write operations to the resv_map, thus we don't need
list_for_each_entry_safe to interate over file_region's any more.
Use list_for_each_entry is enough.
