I have added David Rientjes' ACK from V2, hoping that the change to v3 doesn't invalidate that. Patch 2/3 reworks the free_pool_huge_page() function so that it may also be used by return_unused_surplus_page(). This patch needs careful review [and, testing?]. Perhaps Mel Gorman can give it a go with the hugepages regression tests. Patch 3/3 updates the vm hugetlbpage documentation to clarify the usage and to add the description of the balancing of freeing of huge pages. Most of the update is from my earlier "huge pages nodes_allowed" patch series, without mention of the nodes_allowed mask and associated boot parameter, sysctl and attributes.
