Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/3] fs/proc/task_mmu: Change to use huge_ptep_get_access_flags()

The ARM64 platform can support CONT-PTE/PMD size hugetlb, which can
contain seravel continuous pte or pmd entries. However current
huge_ptep_get() only return one specific pte value for the CONT-PTE
or CONT-PMD size hugetlb, which did not take into accounts the
subpages' dirty or young flags. So the gather_hugetlb_stats()
will miss some dirty hugetlb statistics.

Thus change to use huge_ptep_get_access_flags() taking into accounts
the subpages' dirty or young flags of a CONT-PTE/PMD size hugetlb,
to make the hugetlb statistics more accurate.
