hugetlb: fix copy_hugetlb_page_range() to handle migration/hwpoisoned entry
commit 4a705fef986231a3e7a6b1a6d3c37025f021f49f upstream. There's a race between fork() and hugepage migration, as a result we try to "dereference" a swap entry as a normal pte, causing kernel panic. The cause of the problem is that copy_hugetlb_page_range() can't handle "swap entry" family (migration entry and hwpoisoned entry) so let's fix it.
