Subject: [PATCH v2] mm: hugetlb: improve the handling of hugetlb allocation failure for freed or in-use hugetlb

When handling the freed hugetlb or in-use hugetlb, we should ignore the
failure of alloc_buddy_hugetlb_folio() to dissolve the old hugetlb successfully,
since we did not use the new allocated hugetlb in this 2 cases. Moreover,
moving the allocation into the free hugetlb handling branch.

Signed-off-by: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@...ux.alibaba.com>

Changes from v1:
 - Update the suject line per Muchun.
 - Move the allocation into the free hugetlb handling branch per Michal.
