Re: [RFC] Hugetlb demotion for x86

Seems that the code is not modifying x86 code but all code.

An app should be getting an out of memory error and not a SIGBUS when
running out of memory.

I thought we fixed the SIGBUS problems and were now reporting out of
memory? If there still is an issue then we better fix out of memory
handling. Provide a way for the app to trap OOM conditions?
