Would it work to just move the original call to load_ipc_shm_hdr()
further down in restore_ipc_shm(), especially since the mutex is
not needed anymore - that way you don't need to re-restore them ?

I'm not too familiar with HUGETLB code otherwise, so hoping that
others review those parts while I find time to study it ...

Thanks,

Oren.
