[PATCH 0/8] mm/khugepaged: several cleanups

[Nico Pache]

The following changes stem from a number of reviews during my khugepaged
mTHP support series [1]. Some of these are minor code cleanups, issues or
reviews that we decided to deferred to a followup series, or in the case
of the more major patch of the series, changes [2] Lance Yang attempted
while my series was in-flight and we decided to wait till later to try.

The first 3 patches introduce helper functions to increase code reuse and
readability. This includes a per-scan state clearing function, extracting
the young page check into a helper, and a count_collapse_event() function
to reduce a repetative pattern used across mTHP collapse.

The 4th patch was the byproduct of me throwing Claude at all the
comments in khugepaged verifying and looking for any outdated info.

The 5th patch is based on Lance Yang's commit series [2] trying to extract
the PTE state checking into a helper function. This required a bit of
rewriting due to differences after mTHP collapse was introduced. I also
took into account the changes requested during his patches review cycle.

The remaining 3 patches were review points during my mTHP series that we
agreed can be deferred to a later series.

Thank you to those whos reviews and work I leveraged to achieve these
cleanups.
