Subject: mm: hugetlb: fix a race between freeing and dissolving the page

There is a race condition between __free_huge_page()
and dissolve_free_huge_page().

CPU0:                         CPU1:

// page_count(page) == 1
put_page(page)
  __free_huge_page(page)
                              dissolve_free_huge_page(page)
                                spin_lock(&hugetlb_lock)
                                // PageHuge(page) && !page_count(page)
                                update_and_free_page(page)
                                // page is freed to the buddy
                                spin_unlock(&hugetlb_lock)
    spin_lock(&hugetlb_lock)
    clear_page_huge_active(page)
    enqueue_huge_page(page)
    // It is wrong, the page is already freed
    spin_unlock(&hugetlb_lock)

The race windows is between put_page() and dissolve_free_huge_page().

We should make sure that the page is already on the free list
when it is dissolved.
