I sent out a patch to address this and Hillf Acked. Unfortunately,
there was a typo in your e-mail when I sent out the patch. So, you
may not have noticed.

[PATCH] mm/hugetlb: Don't call region_abort if region_chg fails
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=149033588500724&w=2

If you need/want me to send again, let me know.
