Mel Gorman a425a638c8 Ignore madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) for hugetlbfs-backed regions ... madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) forces page cache readahead on a range of memory backed by a file. The assumption is made that the page required is order-0 and "normal" page cache. On hugetlbfs, this assumption is not true and order-0 pages are allocated and inserted into the hugetlbfs page cache. This leaks hugetlbfs page reservations and can cause BUGs to trigger related to corrupted page tables. This patch causes MADV_WILLNEED to be ignored for hugetlbfs-backed regions.
