Patch 3: 
1) Update the declaration of __unmap_hugepage_range() in hugetlb.h;

  tlb_remove_page_size() by Matthew;
2) Update the processing inside __unmap_hugepage_range() when folio

When you're sending v2, send the same cover letter as you did for the
first one; don't make people go and look at v1 for the cover letter.

Put what was changed in v2 after it, so they have some idea what to look
at when reviewing.

Hi Matthew,

Thanks for the instruction. The previous version of the series (v2) did
not have a cover letter, so I only attached a link here.

I will keep the rule in my mind for future sending.

Since I have changes in each patch in this series, I thought it may be
better to have a cover letter to summarize all the changes in one place.

Should I just mention the changes in each patch separately?

The subject got trimmed, I think Andrew is asking what the real subject 
is supposed to be

"mm/hugetlb: Let unmap_hugepage_range() and ... " ?

Oh. I see. Thanks.

The subject is 

mm/hugetlb: Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related functions take folio
instead of page
