[PATCH 2/4] mm/THP: withdraw the pgtable after pmdp related operations

["Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

For architectures like ppc64 we look at deposited pgtable when
calling pmdp_get_and_clear. So do the pgtable_trans_huge_withdraw
after finishing pmdp related operations.
