Subject: [PATCH 4/4] mm/hugeltb: handle the error case in hugetlb_fix_reserve_counts()

A rare out of memory error would prevent removal of the reserve map region
for a page. hugetlb_fix_reserve_counts() handles this rare case to avoid
dangling with incorrect counts. Unfortunately, hugepage_subpool_get_pages
and hugetlb_acct_memory could possibly fail too. We should correctly handle
these cases.

Fixes: b5cec28d36f5 ("hugetlbfs: truncate_hugepages() takes a range of pages")
