Subject: mm/mremap: use pmd/pud_poplulate to update page table entries
pmd/pud_populate is the right interface to be used to set the respective
page table entries. Some architectures like ppc64 do assume that
set_pmd/= pud_at can only be used to set a hugepage PTE. Since we are not
setting up a hug= epage PTE here, use the pmd/pud_populate interface.
