If __mcopy_atomic_hugetlb exits with an error, put_page will be called
if a huge page was allocated and needs to be freed.  If a reservation
was associated with the huge page, the PagePrivate flag will be set.
Clear PagePrivate before calling put_page/free_huge_page so that the
global reservation count is not incremented.
