Please send Adam a copy of that libhugetlbfs test ;)

hugetlb-correct-page-count-for-surplus-huge-pages.patch adds:

        if (page) {
                /*
                 * This page is now managed by the hugetlb allocator and has
                 * no users -- drop the buddy allocator's reference.
                 */
                int page_count = put_page_testzero(page);
                BUG_ON(page_count != 0);
