parisc: mm: Fix a memory leak related to pmd not attached to the pgd
Commit 0e0da48dee8d ("parisc: mm: don't count preallocated pmds") introduced a memory leak. After this commit, the 'return' statement in pmd_free is executed in all cases. Even for pmd that are not attached to the pgd. So 'free_pages' can never be called anymore, leading to a memory leak.
