Subject[PATCH] mm/hugetlb: use pmd_page() in follow_huge_pmd()
Date
commit 61f77eda "mm/hugetlb: reduce arch dependent code around follow_huge_*"
broke follow_huge_pmd() on s390, where pmd and pte layout differ and using
pte_page() on a huge pmd will return wrong results. Using pmd_page() instead
fixes this.

All architectures that were touched by commit 61f77eda have pmd_page()
defined, so this should not break anything on other architectures.
