It it inconvenient to mention the feature of optimizing vmemmap pages associated with HugeTLB pages when communicating with others since there is no specific or abbreviated name for it when it is first introduced. Let us give it a name HVO (HugeTLB Vmemmap Optimization) from now. This commit also updates the document about "hugetlb_free_vmemmap" by the way discussed in thread [1].

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
