But, do update the comment please.

I was thinking about internal variables/definitions such as:

+enum {
+ /* Tracks hugetlb memory faulted in. */
+ HUGETLB_RES_USAGE,
+ /* Tracks hugetlb memory reserved. */
+ HUGETLB_RES_RESERVATION_USAGE,
+ /* Limit for hugetlb memory faulted in. */
+ HUGETLB_RES_LIMIT,
+ /* Limit for hugetlb memory reserved. */
+ HUGETLB_RES_RESERVATION_LIMIT,
+ /* Max usage for hugetlb memory faulted in. */
+ HUGETLB_RES_MAX_USAGE,
+ /* Max usage for hugetlb memory reserved. */
+ HUGETLB_RES_RESERVATION_MAX_USAGE,
+ /* Faulted memory accounting fail count. */
+ HUGETLB_RES_FAILCNT,
+ /* Reserved memory accounting fail count. */
+ HUGETLB_RES_RESERVATION_FAILCNT,
+ HUGETLB_RES_NULL,
+ HUGETLB_RES_MAX,
+};

But, I guess the existing definitions (such as HUGETLB_RES_LIMIT) correspond
closely to the externally visible name.  In that case, you should leave them
as is and ignore my comment.

This might get a bit ugly/complicated?  Seems like you will need to examine
all hugetlbfs inodes and vma's mapping those inodes.
