Subject: [PATCH v13 04/12] mm: hugetlb: defer freeing of HugeTLB pages
In the subsequent patch, we should allocate the vmemmap pages when
freeing HugeTLB pages. But update_and_free_page() is always called
with holding hugetlb_lock, so we cannot use GFP_KERNEL to allocate
vmemmap pages. However, we can defer the actual freeing in a kworker
to prevent from using GFP_ATOMIC to allocate the vmemmap pages.
The update_hpage_vmemmap_workfn() is where the call to allocate
vmemmmap pages will be inserted.
