Subject: [PATCH] arch/powerpc/radix: Fix kernel crash with mremap

With support for split pmd lock, we use pmd page pmd_huge_pte pointer to store
the deposited page table. In those config when we move page tables we need to
make sure we move the depoisted page table to the right pmd page. Otherwise this
can result in crash when we withdraw of deposited page table because we can find
the pmd_huge_pte NULL.
