Could you get this out into a separate patch and add lockdep assertions
to functions which do not lock it directly but they rely on it so that
the locking is more clear?
e.g. dequeue_huge_page_node, update_and_free_page, try_to_free_low, ...

It would a nice cleanup and a lead for future when somebody tries to
make the locking a bit saner.

There doesn't seem to be any caller for this function. Please move it to
the patch which uses it.
