Subject: mm/hugetlb: fix kernel crash with hugetlb mremap

This fixes the below crash:

the kernel can't use huge_pte_offset before it set the pte entry because a
page table lookup check for huge PTE bit in the page table to
differentiate between a huge pte entry and a pointer to pte page.  A
huge_pte_alloc won't mark the page table entry huge and hence kernel
should not use huge_pte_offset after a huge_pte_alloc.
