Subject: mm/hugetlb: fix potential missing huge page size info
The huge page size is encoded for VM_FAULT_HWPOISON errors only. So if we
return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON, huge page size would just be ignored.

Subject: mm/vmalloc.c: fix potential memory leak
In VM_MAP_PUT_PAGES case, we should put pages and free array in vfree.
But we missed to set area->nr_pages in vmap(). So we would failed to put
pages in __vunmap() because area->nr_pages = 0.
