mm: hugetlb: free the vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page
Every HugeTLB has more than one struct page structure. We __know__ that
we only use the first 4 (__NR_USED_SUBPAGE) struct page structures to
store metadata associated with each HugeTLB.
There are a lot of struct page structures associated with each HugeTLB
page. For tail pages, the value of compound_head is the same. So we can
reuse first page of tail page structures. We map the virtual addresses of
the remaining pages of tail page structures to the first tail page struct,
and then free these page frames. Therefore, we need to reserve two pages
as vmemmap areas.
When we allocate a HugeTLB page from the buddy, we can free some vmemmap
pages associated with each HugeTLB page. It is more appropriate to do it
in the prep_new_huge_page().
The free_vmemmap_pages_per_hpage(), which indicates how many vmemmap pages
associated with a HugeTLB page can be freed, returns zero for now, which
means the feature is disabled. We will enable it once all the
infrastructure is there.
