Let's add
#define vmemmap_pmd_huge vmemmap_pmd_huge
just in case code gets moved around in header file.

Since RESERVE_VMEMMAP_SIZE is not used here, perhaps it should be added
in the patch where it is first used.

This is just a global lock. Correct? And hugetlb specific?

It should be OK as the page table entries for huegtlb pages will not
overlap with other entries.

That routine is not really hugetlb specific. Perhaps we could move it
to sparse-vmemmap.c? Or elsewhere?
