Nishanth Aravamudan 064d9efe94 hugetlb: fix overcommit locking
proc_doulongvec_minmax() calls copy_to_user()/copy_from_user(), so we can't
hold hugetlb_lock over the call.  Use a dummy variable to store the sysctl
result, like in hugetlb_sysctl_handler(), then grab the lock to update
nr_overcommit_huge_pages.
