mm: Account for a THP NUMA hinting update as one PTE update

commit 0255d491848032f6c601b6410c3b8ebded3a37b1 upstream.

A THP PMD update is accounted for as 512 pages updated in vmstat.  This is
large difference when estimating the cost of automatic NUMA balancing and
can be misleading when comparing results that had collapsed versus split
THP. This patch addresses the accounting issue.
