[PATCH] Hugepages need clear_user_highpage() not clear_highpage()

When hugepages are newly allocated to a file in mm/hugetlb.c, we clear them
with a call to clear_highpage() on each of the subpages.  We should be
using clear_user_highpage(): on powerpc, at least, clear_highpage() doesn't
correctly mark the page as icache dirty so if the page is executed shortly
after it's possible to get strange results.
