If me_huge_page meets a truncated huge page, hpage won't be dissolved even if we hold the last refcnt. It's because the truncated huge page has NULL page_mapping while it's not anonymous page too. Thus we lose the last chance to dissolve it into buddy to save healthy subpages. Remove PageAnon check to handle these huge pages too.
