[PATCH v3 2/3] mm/hugetlb: compute/return the number of regions added by region_add()

From: Mike Kravetz
Date: Wed May 27 2015 - 13:57:09 EST


Modify region_add() to keep track of regions(pages) added to the
reserve map and return this value. The return value can be
compared to the return value of region_chg() to determine if the
map was modified between calls.

Make vma_commit_reservation() also pass along the return value of
region_add(). In the normal case, we want vma_commit_reservation
to return the same value as the preceding call to vma_needs_reservation.
Create a common __vma_reservation_common routine to help keep the
special case return values in sync
