Breno Leitao c8b9073142 selftests/mm: export get_free_hugepages()
Patch series "New selftest for mm", v2.

This is a simple test case that reproduces an mm problem[1], where a page
fault races with madvise(), and it is not trivial to reproduce and debug.

This test-case aims to avoid such race problems from happening again,
impacting workloads that leverages external allocators, such as tcmalloc,
jemalloc, etc.

This patch (of 2):

get_free_hugepages() is helpful for other hugepage tests.  Export it to
the common file (vm_util.c) to be reused.

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.
