I'm not a big fan of the verbose breakdown for every huge page size.
As others have pointed out such detail exists elswhere.

But I do think we should have a summary counter for memory consumed by
hugetlb that lets you know how much is missing from MemTotal. This can
be large parts of overall memory, and right now /proc/meminfo will
give the impression we are leaking those pages.

Maybe a simple summary counter for everything set aside by the hugetlb
subsystem - default and non-default page sizes, whether they're used
or only reserved etc.?

Hugetlb 12345 kB
