+Subject: [PATCH] hugetlbfs mmap ENOMEM failure
+
+
+2.6.15's hugepage faulting introduced huge_pages_needed accounting into
+hugetlbfs: to count how many pages are already in cache, for spot check
+on how far a new mapping may be allowed to extend the file. But it's
+muddled: each hugepage found covers HPAGE_SIZE, not PAGE_SIZE. Once
+pages were already in cache, it would overshoot, wrap its hugepages
+count backwards, and so fail a harmless repeat mapping with -ENOMEM.
+Fixes the problem found by Don Dupuis.
