----------------------------------------------------------------------
The decreasing of hugetlb pages number failed with the following message given:

The reason is that the hugetlb pages being released are allocated from movable nodes, and with hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap enabled, vmemmap pages need to be allocated from the same node during the hugetlb pages releasing. With GFP_KERNEL and __GFP_THISNODE set, allocating from movable node is always failed. Fix this problem by removing __GFP_THISNODE.
