Replace arguments avoid_reserve and chg in dequeue_hugetlb_folio_vma()
so dequeue_hugetlb_folio_vma() is more understandable.
The new argument, use_hstate_resv, indicates whether the folio to be
dequeued should be taken from reservations in hstate.
If use_hstate_resv is true, the folio to be dequeued should be taken
from reservations in hstate and hence h->resv_huge_pages is
decremented, and the folio is marked so that the reservation is
restored.
If use_hstate_resv is false, then a folio needs to be taken from the
pool and hence there must exist available_huge_pages(h), failing
which, goto err.
The bool use_hstate_resv can be reused within
dequeue_hugetlb_folio_vma()'s caller, alloc_hugetlb_folio().
No functional changes are intended.
As proof, the original two if conditions
!vma_has_reserves(vma, chg) && !available_huge_pages(h)
and
avoid_reserve && !available_huge_pages(h)
can be combined into
(avoid_reserve || !vma_has_reserves(vma, chg))
&& !available_huge_pages(h).
Applying de Morgan's theorem on
avoid_reserve || !vma_has_reserves(vma, chg)
yields
!avoid_reserve && vma_has_reserves(vma, chg),
hence the simplification is correct.

As already mentioned, Sean's changes look easier to follow.

Some spacing is definitely good.. as Sean pointed out.

Here "avoid_reserve" + "chg" is indeed confusing, especially with the prior
"if (avoid_reserve) gbl_chg = 1;". The new flag can make it slightly
easier to understand indeed for dequeue_hugetlb_folio_vma() alone.
I still feel like there can be something more to be cleaned up here even
after your patch 2-3, but I suppose this could be seen as a small-step
forward, considering one patch change will be harder to review. Feel free
to take:

Whitespace exists for a reason :-) --- As proof, the original two if conditions !vma_has_reserves(vma, chg) && !available_huge_pages(h) and avoid_reserve && !available_huge_pages(h) can be combined into (avoid_reserve || !vma_has_reserves(vma, chg)) && !available_huge_pages(h) Applying de Morgan's theorem on avoid_reserve || !vma_has_reserves(vma, chg) yields !avoid_reserve && vma_has_reserves(vma, chg) hence the simplification is correct. ---
