[PATCH v8 4/4] hugetlb: allow to free gigantic pages regardless of the configuration

From: Alexandre Ghiti
Date: Wed Mar 27 2019 - 02:41:38 EST


On systems without CONTIG_ALLOC activated but that support gigantic pages,
boottime reserved gigantic pages can not be freed at all. This patch
simply enables the possibility to hand back those pages to memory
allocator.
