[PATCH v11 7/9] hugetlb: support file_region coalescing again

From: Mina Almasry
Date: Mon Feb 03 2020 - 18:23:28 EST


An earlier patch in this series disabled file_region coalescing in order
to hang the hugetlb_cgroup uncharge info on the file_region entries.

This patch re-adds support for coalescing of file_region entries.
Essentially everytime we add an entry, we check to see if the
hugetlb_cgroup uncharge info is the same as any adjacent entries. If it
is, instead of adding an entry we simply extend the appropriate entry.

This is an important performance optimization as private mappings add
their entries page by page, and we could incur big performance costs for
large mappings with lots of file_region entries in their resv_map.
