[PATCH v3 02/10] mm/hugetlb: add region_del() to delete a specific range of entries

From: Mike Kravetz
Date: Mon Jul 13 2015 - 00:24:03 EST


fallocate hole punch will want to remove a specific range of pages.
The existing region_truncate() routine deletes all region/reserve
map entries after a specified offset. region_del() will provide
this same functionality if the end of region is specified as LONG_MAX.
Hence, region_del() can replace region_truncate().

Unlike region_truncate(), region_del() can return an error in the
rare case where it can not allocate memory for a region descriptor.
This ONLY happens in the case where an existing region must be split.
Current callers passing LONG_MAX as end of range will never experience
this error and do not need to deal with error handling. Future
callers of region_del() (such as fallocate hole punch) will need to
handle this error.
