Please describe the locking rules.

Missing doc.

huge_page_order here? Not that important because we are using order in
the code directly at many places but easier for grep and maybe worth a
separate clean up patch.

How can this happen? Is it possible that two CPUs are trying to charge
one page?

Really worth a separate function to do the same tests again?
Will have a look at the follow up patches. It would be much easier if
the functions were used in the same patch...
