[PATCH v2 3/7] mm/khugepaged: introduce a count_collapse_event() helper

From: Nico Pache

Date: Tue Jul 14 2026 - 23:00:51 EST


Provide a simple helper function to help reduce a often used, and
duplicate pattern across the khugepaged code.

When collapsing to a PMD we need to record a vm_event and the mTHP_stat
event. When doing mTHP collapse we only update the mTHP stat.
