pretend cpuset has some form of hugetlb page reservation

When cpuset is configured, it breaks the strict hugetlb page reservation as
the accounting is done on a global variable.  Such reservation is
completely rubbish in the presence of cpuset because the reservation is not
checked against page availability for the current cpuset.  Application can
still potentially OOM'ed by kernel with lack of free htlb page in cpuset
that the task is in.  Attempt to enforce strict accounting with cpuset is
almost impossible (or too ugly) because cpuset is too fluid that task or
memory node can be dynamically moved between cpusets.

The change of semantics for shared hugetlb mapping with cpuset is
undesirable.  However, in order to preserve some of the semantics, we fall
back to check against current free page availability as a best attempt and
hopefully to minimize the impact of changing semantics that cpuset has on
hugetlb.
