OK, will do.

Will do.

Yes, it is a global lock. Originally, I wanted to use the pmd lock(e.g.
pmd_lockptr()). But we need to allocate memory for the spinlock and
initialize it when ALLOC_SPLIT_PTLOCKS. It may increase the
complexity.

And I think that here alloc/free hugetlb pages is not a frequent operation.
So I finally use a global lock. Maybe it is enough.

Does "hugetlb specific" mean the pmd lock? or per hugetlb lock?
If it is pmd lock, this is fine to me. If not, it may not be enough.
Because the lock also guards the splitting of pmd pgtable.

Thanks.

Yeah, we can move it to sparse-vmemmap.c, maybe better.
