docs/vm: hugetlbpage: move section about kernel development to hugetlbfs_reserv
The hugetlbpage describes hugetlbfs from the user perspective and newer hugetlbfs_reserv document targets kernel developers. Hence the section about hugetlbfs kernel development naturally belongs there. Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

+Hugetlbfs regression testing
+============================
+The most complete set of hugetlb tests are in the libhugetlbfs repository.
+If you modify any hugetlb related code, use the libhugetlbfs test suite
+to check for regressions. In addition, if you add any new hugetlb
+functionality, please add appropriate tests to libhugetlbfs.
