commit ed1523a895ffdabcab6e067af18685ed00f5ce15 upstream.
The huge_ptep_set_access_flags() can not make the huge pte old according to the discussion [1], that means we will always mornitor the young state of the hugetlb though we stopped accessing the hugetlb, as a result DAMON will get inaccurate accessing statistics.
So changing to use set_huge_pte_at() to make the huge pte old to fix this issue.
