Subject: [PATCH 4.19 260/421] MIPS: add PMD table accounting into MIPSpmd_alloc_one

From: Huang Pei <huangpei@...ngson.cn>

[ Upstream commit ed914d48b6a1040d1039d371b56273d422c0081e ]

This fixes Page Table accounting bug.

MIPS is the ONLY arch just defining __HAVE_ARCH_PMD_ALLOC_ONE alone.
Since commit b2b29d6d011944 (mm: account PMD tables like PTE tables),
"pmd_free" in asm-generic with PMD table accounting and "pmd_alloc_one"
in MIPS without PMD table accounting causes PageTable accounting number
negative, which read by global_zone_page_state(), always returns 0.
