Subject[PATCH][mm] adjust the logic of checking THP
Date

Acturally, pmd_trans_huge(orig_pmd) only checks the _PAGE_PSE bits,
it's a pmd entry bits, only mark a size, not a flag;As one can easily
create the same pmd entry bits for some special use,then the check
will get confused.And this patch is to adjust the logic to use the flag,
it can perfectly avoid this potential issuse,and basically no impact
to the current code.
