Subject: mm/migrate: fix refcount handling when !hugepage_migration_supported()
On failing to migrate a page, soft_offline_huge_page() performs the
necessary update to the hugepage ref-count. When
!hugepage_migration_supported() , unmap_and_move_hugepage() also
decrements the page ref-count for the hugepage. The combined behaviour
leaves the ref-count in an inconsistent state.
This leads to soft lockups when running the overcommitted hugepage test
from mce-tests suite.

Address this by changing the putback_active_hugepage() in
soft_offline_huge_page() to putback_movable_pages().
