[to-be-updated] mm-hugetlb-add-a-new-parameter-for-some-functions.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm: hugetlb: add a new parameter for some functions
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-hugetlb-add-a-new-parameter-for-some-functions.patch

This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged

------------------------------------------------------
From: Huang Shijie <shijie.huang@arm.com>
Subject: mm: hugetlb: add a new parameter for some functions

Add a new parameter, the "no_init", to these functions:

   alloc_fresh_gigantic_page_node()
   alloc_fresh_gigantic_page()

prep_new_huge_page() does some initialization for the new page.  But
sometimes we do not need it to do so, such as in the surplus case in a
later patch.

With this parameter, prep_new_huge_page() can be called by needed:
   If the "no_init" is false, calls the prep_new_huge_page() in
   the alloc_fresh_gigantic_page_node();

This is in preparation for later patches.
