Not exactly right. free_huge_page() does not clear HPageTemporary
if the page is temporarily allocated when freeing. You are right that
dissolve_free_huge_page() does not clear HPageFreed.

Because I think it is the reverse operation of remove_hugetlb_page,
I named it add_hugetlb_page. Do you have any suggestions for
renaming?
