[patch] fix ia64 hugetlb_free_pgd_range

From: Chen, Kenneth W

I've looked at hugetlb_free_pgd_range() right side up, right side
down, up side up, up side down. And it just doesn't look correct
to me at all.

In that function, we do address transformation before calling
free_pgd_range, so the generic function can traverse to right set
of page table page. There is no need to do any range check.
