When adding hugetlb pages to the pool, we first create a list of the
allocated pages before adding to the pool. Pass this list of pages to a
new routine hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize_folios() for vmemmap optimization.

We also modify the routine vmemmap_should_optimize() to check for pages
that are already optimized. There are code paths that might request
vmemmap optimization twice and we want to make sure this is not
attempted.
