[PATCHv6 14/17] mm/hugetlb: Remove hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap_key static key
Posted by Kiryl Shutsemau 4 days, 15 hours ago
The hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap_key static key was used to guard fake head
detection in compound_head() and related functions. It allowed skipping
the fake head checks entirely when HVO was not in use.

With fake heads eliminated and the detection code removed, the static
key serves no purpose. Remove its definition and all increment/decrement
calls.
