Just thought I would throw this suggestion, even though I am probably too late.

I find the term "vmemmap deduplication" more self-explanatory (at least for me)
to refer to your technique ,and similarly s/optimize/dedup. Or vmemmap tail page
deduplication (too verbose maybe) because really that's what this optimization is all
about. OTOH it would slightly deviate from what maybe established now
in hugetlb code.
