Subject: hugetlb: add comment for subtle SetHPageVmemmapOptimized()
Date: Thu, 1 Sep 2022 20:00:28 +0800
The SetHPageVmemmapOptimized() called here seems unnecessary as it's
assumed to be set when calling this function. But it's indeed cleared
by above set_page_private(page, 0). Add a comment to avoid possible
future confusion.
