Do not account for hugetlbfs quota at mmap() time if mapping [SHM|MAP]_NORESERVE 

Commit 5a6fe12595 brought hugetlbfs more
in line with the core VM by obeying VM_NORESERVE and not reserving
hugepages for both shared and private mappings when [SHM|MAP]_NORESERVE
are specified.  However, it is still taking filesystem quota
unconditionally.

At fault time, if there are no reserves and attempt is made to allocate
the page and account for filesystem quota.  If either fail, the fault
fails.  The impact is that quota is getting accounted for twice.  This
patch partially reverts 5a6fe12595.  To
help prevent this mistake happening again, it improves the documentation
of hugetlb_reserve_pages()
