Subject: [PATCH 3/6] ksm: cleanup some function arguments

Cleanup: make argument names more consistent from cmp_and_merge_page()
down to replace_page(), so that it's easier to follow the rmap_item's
page and the matching tree_page and the merged kpage through that code.

In some places, e.g. break_cow(), pass rmap_item instead of separate
mm and address.

cmp_and_merge_page() initialize tree_page to NULL, to avoid a
"may be used uninitialized" warning seen in one config by Anil SB.
