Subject: mm/hugetlb: fix use after free when subpool max_hpages accounting is not enabled

When subpool max_hpages accounting is not enabled, used_hpages is always 0
and might lead to release subpool prematurely because it indicates no
pages are used now while there might be.

In order to fix this issue, we should check used_hpages == 0 iff
max_hpages accounting is enabled.  As max_hpages accounting should be
enabled in most common case, this is not worth a Cc stable.
