Description
- Fixed hugepages auto-configuration validation in ConfD.
- Previously, a safeguard intended to disable hugepages when kernel hugepage size was not 2 MB was effectively unreachable due to a key-matching issue.
- In practice, impact was negligible because this was a dead/unreachable path for normal deployments.
Workaround
No workaround existent/needed.
Fix
Simplified the hugepage calculation function to remove complexity, and fix the minor bug causing the calculation to go wrong in case that code path is taken.
