It was split like this because vma is passed here right?

But hugetlb_reserve_pages() doesn't do much with the vma:

        hugetlb_vma_lock_alloc(vma);
[..]
        vma->vm_private_data = vma_lock;

Manipulates the private which should already exist in prepare:

Check non-share a few times:

        if (!vma || vma->vm_flags & VM_MAYSHARE) {
        if (vma && !(vma->vm_flags & VM_MAYSHARE) && h_cg) {
        if (!vma || vma->vm_flags & VM_MAYSHARE) {

And does this resv_map stuff:

                set_vma_resv_map(vma, resv_map);
                set_vma_resv_flags(vma, HPAGE_RESV_OWNER);
[..]
        set_vma_private_data(vma, (unsigned long)map);

Which is also just manipulating the private data.

So it looks to me like it should be refactored so that
hugetlb_reserve_pages() returns the priv pointer to set in the VMA
instead of accepting vma as an argument. Maybe just pass in the desc
instead?

Then no need to introduce complete. I think it is probably better to
try to avoid using complete except for filling PTEs..
