Michal Privoznik was using "free page reporting" in QEMU/virtio-balloon
with hugetlbfs and hit the warning below.  QEMU with free page hinting
uses fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) to discard pages that are reported
as free by a VM. The reporting granularity is in pageblock granularity.
So when the guest reports 2M chunks, we fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE)
one huge page in QEMU.
