Use new hugetlb specific HPageTemporary flag to replace the
PageHugeTemporary() interfaces.

I would have added a brief comment explaining why it is ok to drop
the PageHuge() check in PageHugeTemporary.
AFAICS, the paths checking it already know they are handling with a 
hugetlb page, but still it is better to mention it in the changelog
in case someone wonders.
Thanks.

Since I have to do another version, I will add this.
