Confused. This adds comments which are similar to the ones which were added by mm-hugetlb-compute-return-the-number-of-regions-added-by-region_add-v2.patch and mm-hugetlb-handle-races-in-alloc_huge_page-and-hugetlb_reserve_pages-v2.patch. But the comments are a bit different. And this patch madly conflicts with the two abovementioned patches.
Maybe the thing to do is to start again, with a three-patch series:
mm-hugetlb-document-the-reserve-map-region-tracking-routines.patch mm-hugetlb-compute-return-the-number-of-regions-added-by-region_add-v3.patch mm-hugetlb-handle-races-in-alloc_huge_page-and-hugetlb_reserve_pages-v3.patch
while resolving the differences in the new code comments?
