FTR, this is Sean's reply with concerns in v4:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-coco/YPCuTiNET%2FhJHqOY@google.com/

I think there are two main arguments there:
- it's not KVM business to decide
- guest may do all page state changes with 2mb granularity so it might be fine
with hugetlb

The latter might become true, but I think it's more probable that sooner
hugetlbfs will learn to split the mappings to base pages - I know people plan to
work on that. At that point qemu will have to recognize if the host kernel is
the new one that can do this splitting vs older one that can't. Preferably
without relying on kernel version number, as backports exist. Thus, trying to
register a hugetlbfs range that either is rejected (kernel can't split) or
passes (kernel can split) seems like a straightforward way. So I'm also in favor
of adding that, hopefuly temporary, check.
