Subject: [PATCH 4.9 119/120] arm64: hugetlb: fix the wrong return value for huge_ptep_set_access_flags

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

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

From: Huang Shijie <shijie.huang@....com>

commit 69d012345a1a32d3f03957f14d972efccc106a98 upstream.

In current code, the @changed always returns the last one's status for
the huge page with the contiguous bit set. This is really not what we
want. Even one of the PTEs is changed, we should tell it to the caller.

This patch fixes this issue.
