Some names in MM really make people confused. But sometimes thinking an appropriate name is also a hard thing. Like I once wanted to change the name of function nr_free_zone_pages() and also nr_free_buffer_pages(). But it is hard to name them, so at last Andrew suggested to add the detailed function description to make it clear only.
