Subject: [PATCH v4 2/6] mm: hugetlbfs: fix cannot migrate the fallocated HugeTLB page

If a new hugetlb page is allocated during fallocate it will not be
marked as active (set_page_huge_active) which will result in a later
isolate_huge_page failure when the page migration code would like to
move that page. Such a failure would be unexpected and wrong.

Only export set_page_huge_active, just leave clear_page_huge_active
as static. Because there are no external users.

Fixes: 70c3547e36f5 (hugetlbfs: add hugetlbfs_fallocate())
