Subject: [v2 PATCH 4/7] mm: khugepaged: use transhuge_vma_suitable replace open-code

The hugepage_vma_revalidate() needs to check if the address is still in
the aligned HPAGE_PMD_SIZE area of the vma when reacquiring mmap_lock,
but it was open-coded, use transhuge_vma_suitable() to do the job.  And
add proper comments for transhuge_vma_suitable().
