Thank you Muchun,

Oscar's changes were not in Andrew's tree when I started on this series
and I failed to notice their inclusion.  In addition,
isolate_or_dissolve_huge_page also needs updating as well as a change in
set_max_huge_pages that was omitted while rebasing.

Andrew, the following patch addresses those missing changes.  Ideally,
the changes should be combined/included in this patch.  If you want me
to sent another version of this patch or another series, let me know.

Subject: [PATCH] hugetlb: fix irq locking omissions

The pach "hugetlb: make free_huge_page irq safe" changed spin_*lock
calls to spin_*lock_irq* calls.  However, it missed several places
in the file hugetlb.c.  Add the overlooked changes.
