Subject: [PATCH v3 0/4] add hugetlb_free_vmemmap sysctl

This series amis to add hugetlb_free_vmemmap sysctl to enable the feature
of freeing vmemmap pages of HugeTLB pages.

v3:
  - Add pr_warn_once() (Mike).
  - Handle the transition from enabling to disabling (Luis)

v2:
  - Fix compilation when !CONFIG_MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY reported by kernel
    test robot <lkp@...el.com>.
  - Move sysctl code from kernel/sysctl.c to mm/hugetlb_vmemmap.c.

Muchun Song (4):
  mm: hugetlb: disable freeing vmemmap pages when struct page crosses
    page boundaries
  mm: memory_hotplug: override memmap_on_memory when
    hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on
  sysctl: allow to set extra1 to SYSCTL_ONE
  mm: hugetlb: add hugetlb_free_vmemmap sysctl
