[PATCH v3.1 4/6] mm/hugetlb: Allow architectures to override huge_pte_clear()

When unmapping a hugepage range, huge_pte_clear() is used to clear the page table entries that are marked as not present. huge_pte_clear() internally just ends up calling pte_clear() which does not correctly deal with hugepages consisting of contiguous page table entries. Add a size argument to ad
