[patch 04/18] mm: hugetlb: remove VM_BUG_ON_PAGE from page_huge_active

Subject: mm: hugetlb: remove VM_BUG_ON_PAGE from page_huge_active

The page_huge_active() can be called from scan_movable_pages() which do
not hold a reference count to the HugeTLB page.  So when we call
page_huge_active() from scan_movable_pages(), the HugeTLB page can be
freed parallel.  Then we will trigger a BUG_ON which is in the
page_huge_active() when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled.  Just remove the
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE.
