Subject: mm/hugetlb: not necessary to coalesce regions recursively
Patch series "mm/hugetlb: code refine and simplification", v4.
Following are some cleanups for hugetlb. Simple testing with
tools/testing/selftests/vm/map_hugetlb passes.
This patch (of 7):
Per my understanding, we keep the regions ordered and would always
coalesce regions properly. So the task to keep this property is just to
coalesce its neighbour.
Let's simplify this.
