No strong opinion (I remember I kicked of the discussion), but I was
wondering if instead of alloc vs. free we could be using something like
optimize vs. restore/rollback.

E.g., hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize() vs. hugetlb_vmemmap_restore().


Maybe there are other suggestions?

I suggest converting that into a bool and just calling it

"bool optimize_vmemmap_pages".

You can easily compute what hugetlb_vmemmap_init() at runtime from the
page and RESERVE_VMEMMAP_NR, right?

At least the calculation in alloc_huge_page_vmemmap() and
free_huge_page_vmemmap() become *less* weird for me if the magic value
RESERVE_VMEMMAP_NR isn't used explicitly for vmemmap_addr but implicitly
for vmemmap_end.

It might be reasonable to call that hugetlb_should_optimize_vmemmap()
then, letting it return a bool.
