[PATCH 4/5] teach smaps_pte_range() about THP pmds

From: Dave Hansen
Date: Wed Feb 09 2011 - 14:54:55 EST



This adds code to explicitly detect and handle
pmd_trans_huge() pmds. It then passes HPAGE_SIZE units
in to the smap_pte_entry() function instead of PAGE_SIZE.

This means that using /proc/$pid/smaps now will no longer
cause THPs to be broken down in to small pages.
