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.

sorry, I missed to remove the disclaimer.

The disclaimer is not the main issue. The patch that ended up on the
list seems to have been corrupted probably by the SMTP server (all tabs
converted to spaces).

Thanks for pointing this. I will change another SMTP server if the issue
still exists in future.

Thanks
