mm: fix false-positive warning on exit due mm_nr_pmds(mm)
The problem is that we check nr_ptes/nr_pmds in exit_mmap() which happens
*before* pgd_free(). And if an arch does pte/pmd allocation in
pgd_alloc() and frees them in pgd_free() we see offset in counters by the
time of the checks.
We tried to workaround this by offsetting expected counter value according
to FIRST_USER_ADDRESS for both nr_pte and nr_pmd in exit_mmap(). But it
doesn't work in some cases:
1. ARM with LPAE enabled also has non-zero USER_PGTABLES_CEILING, but
upper addresses occupied with huge pmd entries, so the trick with
offsetting expected counter value will get really ugly: we will have
to apply it nr_pmds, but not nr_ptes.
2. Metag has non-zero FIRST_USER_ADDRESS, but doesn't do allocation
pte/pmd page tables allocation in pgd_alloc(), just setup a pgd entry
which is allocated at boot and shared accross all processes.
The proposal is to move the check to check_mm() which happens *after*
pgd_free() and do proper accounting during pgd_alloc() and pgd_free()
which would bring counters to zero if nothing leaked.
