[RFC PATCH v1 1/7] mm: hugetlb: Consolidate interpretation of gbl_chg within alloc_hugetlb_folio()

[Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>]

Previously, gbl_chg was passed from alloc_hugetlb_folio() into
dequeue_hugetlb_folio_vma(), leaking the concept of gbl_chg into
dequeue_hugetlb_folio_vma().

This patch consolidates the interpretation of gbl_chg into
alloc_hugetlb_folio(), also renaming dequeue_hugetlb_folio_vma() to
dequeue_hugetlb_folio() so dequeue_hugetlb_folio() can just focus on
dequeuing a folio.

No functional change intended.
