Also here below, the way 'stop_at_none' is used when HGM isn't enabled
is puzzling.  Could you elaborate please?

+		return sz == huge_page_size(hstate_vma(vma)) ? 0 : -EINVAL;

[..]

+        pte = huge_ptep_get(hpte->ptep);
+        if (!pte_present(pte)) {
+            if (stop_at_none)
+                return 0;
+            if (unlikely(!huge_pte_none(pte)))
+                return -EEXIST;

If 'stop_at_none' means settling down on the just encountered empty PTE,
should the above two "if" clauses switch order?  I thought Peter has
raised this question too, but I'm not seeing a response.
