It is bettter to only make @walk->remap_pte indicate whether we should go
to the last page table level. I suggest reusing VMEMMAP_NO_TLB_FLUSH
to indicate whether we should flush the TLB at pmd level. It'll be more 
clear.

Maybe it is reasonable to add a return value to hugetlb_vmemmap_split()
to indicate whether it has done successfully, if it fails, it must be
OOM, in which case, there is no sense to continue to split the page talbe
and optimize the vmemmap pages subsequently, right?

Thanks.
