Subject: arm64: hugetlb: fix the wrong address for several functions

From: Huang Shijie <[email protected]>

commit 0c2f0afe3582c58efeef93bc57bc07d502132618 upstream.

The libhugetlbfs meets several failures since the following functions do not use the correct address:
huge_ptep_get_and_clear()
huge_ptep_set_access_flags()
huge_ptep_set_wrprotect()
huge_ptep_clear_flush()

This patch fixes the wrong address for them.
