mm/hugetlb: avoid looping to the same hugepage if !pages and !vmas
When mmapping an existing hugetlbfs file with MAP_POPULATE, we find it is very time consuming. For example, mmapping a 128GB file takes about 50 milliseconds. Sampling with perfevent shows it spends 99% time in the same_page loop in follow_hugetlb_page(). samples: 205 of event 'cycles', Event count (approx.): 136686374 - 99.04% test_mmap_huget [kernel.kallsyms] [k] follow_hugetlb_page follow_hugetlb_page __get_user_pages __mlock_vma_pages_range __mm_populate vm_mmap_pgoff sys_mmap_pgoff sys_mmap system_call_fastpath __mmap64 follow_hugetlb_page() is called with pages=NULL and vmas=NULL, so for each hugepage, we run into the same_page loop for pages_per_huge_page() times, but doing nothing. With this change, it takes less then 1 millisecond to mmap a 128GB file in hugetlbfs.
