mm: fix rss count leakage during migration
Memory migration fills a pte with a migration entry and it doesn't update the rss counters. Then it replaces the migration entry with the new page (or the old one if migration failed). But between these two passes this pte can be unmaped, or a task can fork a child and it will get a copy of this migration entry. Nobody accounts for this in the rss counters. This patch properly adjust rss counters for migration entries in zap_pte_range() and copy_one_pte(). Thus we avoid extra atomic operations on the migration fast-path.
