[PATCH 5/6] mm/mremap: Use pmd/pud_poplulate to update page table entries

pmd/pud_populate is the right interface to be used to set the respective
page table entries. Some architectures like ppc64 do assume that set_pmd/pud_at
can only be used to set a hugepage PTE. Since we are not setting up a hugepage
PTE here, use the pmd/pud_populate interface.
