Thanks for taking a look. This is introduced in commit f41f2ed43ca5.

This is a loop, we shoud keep "optimizable" as "true" as long as there is one
hstate is optimizable. How about:

  if (size)
	optimizable = true;

I thought the users can know what size HugeTLB is optimizable via
this log.  E.g. On aarch64, 64KB HugeTLB cannot be optimizable.
I do not have a strong opinion as well, if anyone think it is
unnecessary, I'll drop it in next version.

Thanks.
