Pull powerpc mremap fix from Ben Herrenschmidt:
 "This is the patch that I had sent after -rc8 and which we decided to
  wait before merging.  It's based on a different tree than my -next
  branch (it needs some pre-reqs that were in -rc4 or so while my -next
  is based on -rc1) so I left it as a separate branch for your to pull.
  It's identical to the request I did 2 or 3 weeks back.

  This fixes crashes in mremap with THP on powerpc.

  The fix however requires a small change in the generic code.  It moves
  a condition into a helper we can override from the arch which is
  harmless, but it *also* slightly changes the order of the set_pmd and
  the withdraw & deposit, which should be fine according to Kirill (who
  wrote that code) but I agree -rc8 is a bit late...

  It was acked by Kirill and Andrew told me to just merge it via powerpc"
