From: Liu Zixian <liuzixian4@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/hugetlb: initialize hugetlb_usage in mm_init
After fork, the child process will get incorrect (2x) hugetlb_usage.
If a process uses 5 2MB hugetlb pages in an anonymous mapping,
HugetlbPages: 10240 kB
and then forks, the child will show,
HugetlbPages: 20480 kB
The reason for double the amount is because hugetlb_usage will be copied
from the parent and then increased when we copy page tables from parent to
child. Child will have 2x actual usage.
Fix this by adding hugetlb_count_init in mm_init.
