Subject: [PATCH] rmap: fix NULL-pointer dereference on THP munlocking

The following test case triggers NULL-pointer derefernce in
try_to_unmap_one():

	#include <fcntl.h>
	#include <stdlib.h>
	#include <unistd.h>
	#include <sys/mman.h>

	int main(int argc, char *argv[])
	{
		int fd;

		system("mount -t tmpfs -o huge=always none /mnt");
		fd = open("/mnt/test", O_CREAT | O_RDWR);
		ftruncate(fd, 2UL << 20);
		mmap(NULL, 2UL << 20, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
				MAP_SHARED | MAP_FIXED | MAP_LOCKED, fd, 0);
		mmap(NULL, 2UL << 20, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
				MAP_SHARED | MAP_LOCKED, fd, 0);
		munlockall();
		return 0;
	}

Apparently, there's a case when we call try_to_unmap() on huge PMDs:
it's TTU_MUNLOCK.

Let's handle this case correctly.
