Following on from Andrew's feedback here are a couple of update patches
for hugetlb reservations v4 and MAP_NORESERVE V3.  These introduce a number
of new helpers and use those throughout.

This stack consists of two patches to allow them to be merged into the
appropriate stacks.

huge-page-private-reservation-review-cleanups -- adds the helpers and
  utilises them in the base reservations stack, and

huge-page-MAP_NORESERVE-review-cleanups -- uses the same helpers in the
  MAP_NORESERVE stack.
