[PATCH] khugepaged: fix use-after-free in collapse_huge_page()

[Kirill A. Shutemov]

hugepage_vma_revalidate() tries to re-check if we still should try to
collapse small pages into huge one after the re-acquiring mmap_sem.

The problem Dmitry Vyukov reported[1] is that the vma found by
hugepage_vma_revalidate() can be suitable for huge pages, but not the
same vma we had before dropping mmap_sem. And dereferencing original vma
can lead to fun results..

Let's use vma hugepage_vma_revalidate() found instead of assuming it's
the same as what we had before the lock was dropped.
