Gerald Schaefer eb03aa0085 mm/hugetlb: improve locking in dissolve_free_huge_pages()
For every pfn aligned to minimum_order, dissolve_free_huge_pages() will
call dissolve_free_huge_page() which takes the hugetlb spinlock, even if
the page is not huge at all or a hugepage that is in-use.

Improve this by doing the PageHuge() and page_count() checks already in
dissolve_free_huge_pages() before calling dissolve_free_huge_page().  In
dissolve_free_huge_page(), when holding the spinlock, those checks need
to be revalidated.
