H A Dhugetlb.c31731452 Wed Sep 14 14:09:17 CDT 2022 Doug Berger <opendmb@gmail.com> mm/hugetlb: correct demote page offset logic

With gigantic pages it may not be true that struct page structures are
contiguous across the entire gigantic page. The nth_page macro is used
here in place of direct pointer arithmetic to correct for this.

: This error could cause addressing exceptions. However, this is only
: possible in configurations where CONFIG_SPARSEMEM &&
: !CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP. Such a configuration option is rare and
: unknown to be the default anywhere.
