Hi,

This patch set fixes some cache flushing issues if PMD sharing is
possible for hugetlb pages, which were found by code inspection.
Meanwhile Mike found the flush_cache_page() can not cover the whole
size of a hugetlb page on some architectures [1], so I added a new
patch 3 to fix this issue, since I found only try_to_unmap_one()
and try_to_migrate_one() need to fix after some investigation.

Please help to review. Thanks.
