============== OVERVIEW ===========================
This series converts the hugetlb page faulting functions to operate on
folios. These include hugetlb_no_page(), hugetlb_wp(),
copy_hugetlb_page_range(), and hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte().
patches 1-3:
- convert prerequisite helper functions to folios.
patch 4:
- add a folio variable to the hugetlb fault functions and start
a partial conversion to folios.
patch 5:
- fully convert hugetlb fault functions to folios.
patches 6-8:
- convert three functions to take in a folio rather than a page as
all callers now use folios.
patch 9:
- update documentation that references alloc_huge_page
