We need to deposit pre-allocated PTE page table when a PMD migration
entry is copied in copy_huge_pmd(). Otherwise, we will leak the
pre-allocated page and cause a NULL pointer dereference later in
zap_huge_pmd().
The missing counters during PMD migration entry copy process are added
as well.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
