mm/hugetlb: fix memfd_pin_folios free_huge_pages leak
memfd_pin_folios followed by unpin_folios fails to restore free_huge_pages
if the pages were not already faulted in, because the folio refcount for
pages created by memfd_alloc_folio never goes to 0. memfd_pin_folios
needs another folio_put to undo the folio_try_get below:
memfd_alloc_folio()
alloc_hugetlb_folio_nodemask()
dequeue_hugetlb_folio_nodemask()
dequeue_hugetlb_folio_node_exact()
folio_ref_unfreeze(folio, 1); ; adds 1 refcount
folio_try_get() ; adds 1 refcount
hugetlb_add_to_page_cache() ; adds 512 refcount (on x86)
With the fix, after memfd_pin_folios + unpin_folios, the refcount for the
(unfaulted) page is 512, which is correct, as the refcount for a faulted
unpinned page is 513.
