In this case I see\nrestore_reserve_on_error() delete the reservation, and the following\ncall to remove_inode_hugepages() will increment h->resv_hugepages\ncausing a 100% reproducible leak.\n\nWe should treat the is_continue case similar to adding a page into the\npagecache and set new_pagecache_page to true, to indicate that there is\nno reservation to restore on the error path, and we need not call\nrestore_reserve_on_error().  Rename new_pagecache_page to\npage_in_pagecache to make that clear."
