Upon failure, we repopulate the PMD in case of PMD-THP collapse. Hence, make
this logic specific for PMD case.

Given this function is clearly so geared towards re-establishing the pmd, given
that it takes the *pmd and orig_pmd as params, and given that in the
non-pmd-order case, we only call through to release_pte_pages(), I wonder if
it's better to make the decision at a higher level and either call this function
or release_pte_pages() directly? No strong opinion, just looks a bit weird at
the moment.

Makes sense, we can probably get rid of this function and let the caller call
reestablish_pmd() or something for the PMD case.
