Subject: [RFC PATCH 5/8] hugetlb: change free_pool_huge_page to remove_pool_huge_page
free_pool_huge_page was called with hugetlb_lock held. It would remove
a hugetlb page, and then free the corresponding pages to the lower level
allocators such as buddy. free_pool_huge_page was called in a loop to
remove hugetlb pages and these loops could hold the hugetlb_lock for a
considerable time.
Create new routine remove_pool_huge_page to replace free_pool_huge_page.
remove_pool_huge_page will remove the hugetlb page, and it must be
called with the hugetlb_lock held. It will return the removed page and
it is the responsibility of the caller to free the page to the lower
level allocators. The hugetlb_lock is dropped before freeing to these
allocators which results in shorter lock hold times.
