It's guaranteed that huge_zero_page will not be NULL if huge_zero_refcount is increased successfully. When READ_ONCE(huge_zero_page) is returned, there must be a huge_zero_page and it can be replaced with returning 'true' when we do not care about the value of huge_zero_page. We can thus make it return bool to save READ_ONCE cpu cycles as the return value is just used to check if huge_zero_page exists.

README
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.
