As an optimization for loops sequentially processing hugetlb address
ranges, huge_pmd_unshare would update a passed address if it unshared a
pmd.  Updating a loop control variable outside the loop like this is
generally a bad idea.  These loops are now using hugetlb_mask_last_hp
to optimize scanning when non-present ptes are discovered.  The same
can be done when huge_pmd_unshare returns 1 indicating a pmd was
unshared.

Remove address update from huge_pmd_unshare.  Change the passed argument
type and update all callers.  In loops sequentially processing addresses
use hugetlb_mask_last_hp to update address if pmd is unshared.
