[v2 1/6] mm: hugetlb: Skip prep of tail pages when HVO is enabled

From: Usama Arif
Date: Sun Jul 30 2023 - 11:16:43 EST


When vmemmap is optimizable, it will free all the duplicated tail
pages in hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize while preparing the new hugepage.
Hence, there is no need to prepare them.

For 1G x86 hugepages, it avoids preparing
262144 - 64 = 262080 struct pages per hugepage.

The indirection of using __prep_compound_gigantic_folio is also removed,
as it just creates extra functions to indicate demote which can be done
with the argument.
