Subject: [PATCH] arm64: hugetlb: fix the wrong return value for
huge_ptep_set_access_flags
In current code, the @changed always returns the last one's status for
the huge page with the contiguous bit set. This is really not what we
want. Even one of the PTEs is changed, we should tell it to the caller.
This patch fixes this issue.
