free_pool_huge_page was called with hugetlb_lock held. It would remove
a hugetlb page, and then free the corresponding pages to the lower level
allocators such as buddy. free_pool_huge_page was called in a loop to
remove hugetlb pages and these loops could hold the hugetlb_lock for a
considerable time.
Create new routine remove_pool_huge_page to replace free_pool_huge_page.
remove_pool_huge_page will remove the hugetlb page, and it must be
called with the hugetlb_lock held. It will return the removed page and
it is the responsibility of the caller to free the page to the lower
level allocators. The hugetlb_lock is dropped before freeing to these
allocators which results in shorter lock hold times.
Add new helper routine to call update_and_free_page for a list of pages.
Note: Some changes to the routine return_unused_surplus_pages are in
need of explanation. Commit e5bbc8a6c992 ("mm/hugetlb.c: fix
reservation race when freeing surplus pages") modified this routine to
address a race which could occur when dropping the hugetlb_lock in the
loop that removes pool pages. Accounting changes introduced in that
commit were subtle and took some thought to understand. This commit
removes the cond_resched_lock() and the potential race. Therefore,
remove the subtle code and restore the more straight forward accounting
effectively reverting the commit.
