mm/hugetlb: fix use after free when subpool max_hpages accounting is not enabled
If a hugetlbfs filesystem is created with the min_size option and
without the size option, used_hpages is always 0 and might lead to
release subpool prematurely because it indicates no pages are used now
while there might be.
In order to fix this issue, we should check used_hpages == 0 iff
max_hpages accounting is enabled. As max_hpages accounting should be
enabled in most common case, this is not worth a Cc stable.
