Are the *...* for special formatting of the words somewhere?  Or, just
for simple added emphasis?  This convention is not used anywhere else in
the file.  Unless there is a good reason for doing so, I would prefer to
to drop the *...* convention here.

Instead of aligning addr and new_addr, we should be checking for huge
page alignment and returning error.  This makes it consistent with the
requirement that they be PAGE aligned in the non-hugetlb case.  Sorry if
that was unclear in previous comments.

		/* addrs must be huge page aligned */
		if (addr & ~huge_page_mask(h))
			goto out;
		if (new_addr & ~huge_page_mask(h))
			goto out;
