Subject: hugetlb: use page.private for hugetlb specific page flags
Patch series "create hugetlb flags to consolidate state", v3.
While discussing a series of hugetlb fixes in [1], it became evident that
the hugetlb specific page state information is stored in a somewhat
haphazard manner. Code dealing with state information would be easier to
read, understand and maintain if this information was stored in a
consistent manner.
This series uses page.private of the hugetlb head page for storing a set
of hugetlb specific page flags. Routines are priovided for test, set and
clear of the flags.

This patch (of 5):
As hugetlbfs evolved, state information about hugetlb pages was added.
One 'convenient' way of doing this was to use available fields in tail
pages. Over time, it has become difficult to know the meaning or contents
of fields simply by looking at a small bit of code. Sometimes, the naming
is just confusing. For example: The PagePrivate flag indicates a huge
page reservation was consumed and needs to be restored if an error is
encountered and the page is freed before it is instantiated. The
page.private field contains the pointer to a subpool if the page is
associated with one.
In an effort to make the code more readable, use page.private to contain
hugetlb specific page flags. These flags will have test, set and clear
functions similar to those used for 'normal' page flags. More
importantly, an enum of flag values will be created with names that
actually reflect their purpose.
In this patch,
- Create infrastructure for hugetlb specific page flag functions
- Move subpool pointer to page[1].private to make way for flags
Create routines with meaningful names to modify subpool field
- Use new HPageRestoreReserve flag instead of PagePrivate
Conversion of other state information will happen in subsequent patches.
