Pages allocated via the page allocator or CMA get its private field
cleared by means of post_alloc_hook().
Pages allocated during boot, that is directly from the memblock
allocator, get cleared by paging_init()-> .. ->memmap_init_zone-> ..
->__init_single_page() before any memblock allocation.
Based on this ground, let us remove the clearing of the flag from
prep_new_huge_page() as it is not needed. This was a leftover from
commit 6c03714901 ("hugetlb: convert PageHugeFreed to HPageFreed
flag").
Previously the explicit clearing was necessary because compound
allocations do not get this initialization (see prep_compound_page).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
