[RFC PATCH 07/24] mm/hugetlb: Add freeing unused vmemmap pages support for x86

From: Muchun Song <hidden>
Date: 2020-09-16 00:44:31
Also in: linux-fsdevel, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

On x86_64 architecture, we use hupe page mapping vmemmap area. We
should define VMEMMAP_HPAGE_SHIFT to the correct value to support
freeing unused vmemmap pages.
