Subject: [PATCH] mm/hugetlb: Remove unnecessary huge_ptep_set_access_flags() in hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte()

There is no need to update the hugetlb access flags after just setting the
hugetlb page table entry by set_huge_pte_at(), since the page table entry
value has no changes. Thus remove the unnecessary huge_ptep_set_access_flags()
in hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte().
