Mel Gorman f2deae9d4e Remove implementation of readpage from the hugetlbfs_aops ... The core VM assumes the page size used by the address_space in inode->i_mapping is PAGE_SIZE but hugetlbfs breaks this assumption by inserting pages into the page cache at offsets the core VM considers unexpected. This would not be a problem except that hugetlbfs also provide a ->readpage implementation. As it exists, the core VM can assume the base page size is being used, allocate pages on behalf of the filesystem, insert them into the page cache and call ->readpage to populate them. These pages are the wrong size and at the wrong offset for hugetlbfs causing confusion. This patch deletes the ->readpage implementation for hugetlbfs on the grounds the core VM should not be allocating and populating pages on behalf of hugetlbfs. There should be no existing users of the ->readpage implementation so it should not cause a regression.
