Thanks,
The code looks fine.  It is unfortunate that we need so many levels of
indenting and exceed 80 columns.  But, that is OK.

Reviewed-by: Mike Kravetz <mike.kravetz@...cle.com>

I see you have a followup series to address the call to ptep_clear_flush()
for hugetlb pages not unmapped via huge_pmd_share and will take a look at
that soon.
