Thank you for review my code and please just call me Tsukada.

I think it is possible to modify the inside of itself rather than
replacing the call to hpage_nr_pages().

Inferring from the processing that hpage_nr_pages() desires, I thought
that the definition of hpage_nr_pages() could be moved outside the
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE. It seems that THP and HugeTLBfs can be
handled correctly because compound_order() is judged by seeing whether it
is PageHead or not.

Also, I would like to use compound_order() inside hpage_nr_pages(), but
since huge_mm.h is included before mm.h where compound_order() is defined,
move hpage_nr_pages to mm.h.

Instead of patch 3/7, are the following patches implementing what you
intended?
