Subject: [PATCH 36/81] mm/hugetlb: set PTE as huge in hugetlb_change_protection and remove_migration_pte

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

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

From: Tony Lu <zlu@...era.com>

commit be7517d6ab9722f0abad6ba5ffd39cfced95549c upstream.

When setting a huge PTE, besides calling pte_mkhuge(), we also need to
call arch_make_huge_pte(), which we indeed do in make_huge_pte(), but we
forget to do in hugetlb_change_protection() and remove_migration_pte().
