Cover letter [patch 00/17] multi size, and giant hugetlb page support, 1GB hugetlb for x86

Hi,

I'm taking care of Andi's hugetlb patchset now. I've taken a while to appear to do anything with it because I have had other things to do and also needed some time to get up to speed on it.

Anyway, from my reviewing of the patchset, I didn't find a great deal wrong with it in the technical aspects. Taking hstate out of the hugetlbfs inode and vma is really the main thing I did.

However on the less technical side, I think a few things could be improved, eg. to do with the configuring and reporting, as well as the "administrative" type of code. I tried to make improvements to things in the last patch of the series. I will end up folding this properly into the rest of the patchset where possible.

The other thing I did was try to shuffle the patches around a bit. There were one or two (pretty trivial) points where it wasn't bisectable, and also merge a couple of patches.

I will try to get this patchset merged in -mm soon if feedback is positive. I would also like to take patches for other architectures or any other patches or suggestions for improvements.

Patches are against head.

Thanks,
Nick
