From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: huge mm: move_huge_pmd does not need new_vma
Remove move_huge_pmd()'s redundant new_vma arg: all it was used for was a
VM_NOHUGEPAGE check on new_vma flags, but the new_vma is cloned from the
old vma, so a trans_huge_pmd in the new_vma will be as acceptable as it
was in the old vma, alignment and size permitting.
