Li Zhe 3dfd02c900 hugetlb: increase number of reserving hugepages via cmdline 
Commit 79359d6d24 ("hugetlb: perform vmemmap optimization on a list of
pages") batches the submission of HugeTLB vmemmap optimization (HVO)
during hugepage reservation.  With HVO enabled, hugepages obtained from
the buddy allocator are not submitted for optimization and their
struct-page memory is therefore not released—until the entire
reservation request has been satisfied.  As a result, any struct-page
memory freed in the course of the allocation cannot be reused for the
ongoing reservation, artificially limiting the number of huge pages that
can ultimately be provided.

As commit b1222550fb ("mm/hugetlb: do pre-HVO for bootmem allocated
pages") already applies early HVO to bootmem-allocated huge pages, this
patch extends the same benefit to non-bootmem pages by incrementally
submitting them for HVO as they are allocated, thereby returning
struct-page memory to the buddy allocator in real time.  The change raises
the maximum 2 MiB hugepage reservation from just under 376 GB to more than
381 GB on a 384 GB x86 VM.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
