This patch-set fixes issues found in the pfn tracking code of PAT
when mremap() is used on a VM_PFNMAP range.

Patch 1/2 changes untrack_pfn() to handle the case of mremap() with
MREMAP_FIXED, i.e. remapping virtual address on a VM_PFNMAP range.

Patch 2/2 changes the free_memtype() path to handle the case of
mremap() that shrinks the size of a VM_PFNMAP range.

Note, mremap() to expand the size of a VM_PFNMAP range is not a valid
case as VM_DONTEXPAND is set along with VM_PFNMAP.
