[PATCH 1/6] mm, hugetlb: unify core page allocation accounting and initialization

[Michal Hocko]

From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>

hugetlb allocator has two entry points to the page allocator
- alloc_fresh_huge_page_node
- __hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page

The two differ very subtly in two aspects. The first one doesn't care
about HTLB_BUDDY_* stats and it doesn't initialize the huge page.
prep_new_huge_page is not used because it not only initializes hugetlb
specific stuff but because it also put_page and releases the page to
the hugetlb pool which is not what is required in some contexts. This
makes things more complicated than necessary.

Simplify things by a) removing the page allocator entry point duplicity
and only keep __hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page and b) make
prep_new_huge_page more reusable by removing the put_page which moves
the page to the allocator pool. All current callers are updated to call
put_page explicitly. Later patches will add new callers which won't
need it.

This patch shouldn't introduce any functional change.
