/proc/PID/smaps: Add PMD migration entry parsing



Now, when reading /proc/PID/smaps, the PMD migration entry in page table
is simply ignored.  To improve the accuracy of /proc/PID/smaps, its
parsing and processing is added.

To test the patch, we run pmbench to eat 400 MB memory in background,
then run /usr/bin/migratepages and `cat /proc/PID/smaps` every second.
The issue as follows can be reproduced within 60 seconds.

Before the patch, for the fully populated 400 MB anonymous VMA, some THP
pages under migration may be lost as below.
