Hi Nicholas:
I met some problem for this patch, like this:
kva = vmalloc(3*1024k);
remap_vmalloc_range(xxx, kva, xxx)
It failed because that the check for page_count(page) is null so return, it break the some logic for current modules.
because the new huge page is not valid for composed page.
I think some guys really don't get used to the changes for the vmalloc that the small pages was transparency to the hugepage
when the size is bigger than the PMD_SIZE.
can we think about give a new static huge page to fix it? just like use a a new vmalloc_huge_xxx function to disginguish the current function,
the user could choose to use the transparent hugepage or static hugepage for vmalloc.
Thanks
Ding
