I think that current form is better since use_reserve is not same as
vma_has_reserves(). I changed the call site of vma_has_reserves() to chg in
previous patch. In this patch, use_reserve in alloc_huge_page is made
by chg and avoid_reserve and is passed to dequeue_huge_page_vma(). So changing
in dequeue_huge_page_vma() is trivial.
