I assume the use of a pointer is just to make the following WRITE_ONCE
look better? I prefer the suggestion by Muchun:

unsigned long usage = h_cg->nodeinfo[page_to_nid(page)]->usage[idx];

usage += nr_pages;
WRITE_ONCE(h_cg->nodeinfo[page_to_nid(page)]->usage[idx], usage);

I had to think for just a second 'why are we using/passing a pointer?'.
Not insisting we use Muchun's suggestion, it just caused me to think
a little more than necessary.

In any case, I would move the variable usage inside the
'if (!rsvd)' block.

Same here.

Otherwise, looks good to me.
