Hi,
      I still think it is a issue. Perhaps above changelog is unclear.  Further explain is as follows.
 when hugetlb_pages is disable and arch_want_huge_pmd_share is enable,   we maybe call
 huge_pmd_sahre in hugetlbpage.c, but the function actually is not definition as it is not
 exported.  is it right ??

Thanks
