Instead of the forward declaration, just put the function here.

The start of this comment block says,

/*
* Add the huge page range represented by [f, t) to the reserve
* map. Existing regions will be expanded to accommodate the specified
* range, or a region will be taken from the cache.

We are no longer expanding existing regions. Correct?
As an optimization, I guess we could coalesce/combine reion entries as
long as they are for the same cgroup. However, it may not be worth the
effort.

Consider this example,

- region_chg(1,2)
adds_in_progress = 1
cache entries 1
- region_chg(3,4)
adds_in_progress = 2
cache entries 2
- region_chg(5,6)
adds_in_progress = 3
cache entries 3

At this point, no region descriptors are in the map because only
region_chg has been called.

- region_chg(0,6)
adds_in_progress = 4
cache entries 4

Is that correct so far?

Then the following sequence happens,

- region_add(1,2)
adds_in_progress = 3
cache entries 3
- region_add(3,4)
adds_in_progress = 2
cache entries 2
- region_add(5,6)
adds_in_progress = 1
cache entries 1

list of region descriptors is:
[1->2] [3->4] [5->6]

- region_add(0,6)
This is going to require 3 cache entries but only one is in the cache.
I think we are going to BUG in get_file_region_entry_from_cache() the
second time it is called from add_reservation_in_range().

I stopped looking at the code here as things will need to change if this
is a real issue.
