Randy:  thanks for the review.  I'll add you to the cc list for
reposting of the series.  I'll make all of the changes you suggest,
except those that you seemed to concede might not be required:

1) surplus vs overcommitted.  The currently exported user space
interface uses both "overcommit" for specifying the limit and "surplus"
for displaying the number of overcommitted pages in use.  I agree that
it's somewhat of a misuse of "surplus" as the count actually indicates
"deficit spending" of huge page resources.

2)  the s/cpu/CPU/.  As you say, that cat is on the run.
