mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: introduce the name HVO
It it inconvenient to mention the feature of optimizing vmemmap pages associated with HugeTLB pages when communicating with others since there is no specific or abbreviated name for it when it is first introduced. Let us give it a name HVO (HugeTLB Vmemmap Optimization) from now. This commit also updates the document about "hugetlb_free_vmemmap" by the way discussed in thread [1].
