I am not good at function names.  The following suggestions may be too
verbose.  However, they helped me understand purpose of routines.

	perhaps?	 	free_vmemmap_pages_per_hpage()

I see the following routines follow the pattern for vmemmap manipulation
in dax.

It seems a bit strange that we will fail a huge page allocation if
vmemmap_pgtable_prealloc fails.  Not sure, but it almost seems like we shold
allow the allocation and log a warning?  It is somewhat unfortunate that
we need to allocate a page to free pages.
