Subject: [PATCH 08/12] hugetlb: batch freeing of vmemmap pages

Now that batching of hugetlb vmemmap optimization processing is possible,
batch the freeing of vmemmap pages.  When freeing vmemmap pages for a
hugetlb page, we add them to a list that is freed after the entire batch
has been processed.

This enhances the ability to return contiguous ranges of memory to the
low level allocators.
