It is better not to delete this, I know you want to lower the overhead
for users when
!hugepages_supported(). However, it is not a common case and not a hot path.

It is better to use printk here. Two reasons.

 1) To keep consistent with the print in show_free_areas().
 2) If we want to introduce the macro "#define pr_fmt(fmt) "HugeTLB: "
fmt" to hugetlb.c
    in the future, the print here will not be affected.

As I said above, embed this check into hugetlb_show_meminfo_node().

Please use for_each_online_node here.

Thanks.
