[PATCH v2 07/10] thp: implement splitting pmd for huge zero page

["Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com>]

From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com>

We can't split huge zero page itself, but we can split the pmd which
points to it.

On splitting the pmd we create a table with all ptes set to normal zero
page.
