Remove the duplicate 'page' in the sentence describing large page
allocation accounting. The extra word makes the description confusing.

allocation (e.g., THP) can differ: a page is accounted as "private" if all
pages part of the corresponding large allocation are *certainly* mapped in the
same process, even if the page is mapped multiple times in that process. A
-page is accounted as "shared" if any page page of the larger allocation
+page is accounted as "shared" if any page of the larger allocation
is *maybe* mapped in a different process. In some cases, a large allocation
might be treated as "maybe mapped by multiple processes" even though this
is no longer the case.
