v2 - used mm->page_table_lock to fix up locking bug that Mel pointed out. Also remove Acks since things got changed significantly. This adds code to explicitly detect and handle pmd_trans_huge() pmds. It then passes HPAGE_SIZE units in to the smap_pte_entry() function instead of PAGE_SIZE. This means that using /proc/$pid/smaps now will no longer cause THPs to be broken down in to small pages.
