Subject: [PATCH v2] mm/hugetlb: remove redundant check in preparing and destroying gigantic page

From: Yanfei Xu <yanfei.xu@...driver.com>

Gigantic page is a compound page and its order is more than 1.
Thus it must be available for hpage_pincount. Let's remove the
redundant check for gigantic page.
