hugetlb.xMB.limit_in_bytes does not provide a good behaviors when using hugepages[1]. In short, application might request hugepages successfully but SIGBUS will raise when application try to access the hugepages memory. Linux kernel solve this problem from 5.7[2].
Maybe we should use hugetlb.xMB.rsvd.limit_in_bytes to provide a better hugepages behaviors.
