mm: teach mincore_hugetlb about pte markers 

commit 63cf584203 upstream.

By checking huge_pte_none(), we incorrectly classify PTE markers as
"present".  Instead, check huge_pte_none_mostly(), classifying PTE markers
the same as if the PTE were completely blank.

PTE markers, unlike other kinds of swap entries, don't reference any
physical page and don't indicate that a physical page was mapped
previously.  As such, treat them as non-present for the sake of mincore().
