OFFSET vs MASK semantics can be confusing without reading the definition.
We don't have anything similar for base page size, right (PAGE_OFFSET is
completely different thing :P)?

PageCompound() and PageTransCompound() are the same thing if THP is
enabled at compile time.
PageHuge() check here is looking out of place. I don't thing we can ever
will see hugetlb pages here.

If you see unexpected page order in page cache, something went horribly

Confused here.
Do you expect caller to lock page before the check? If so, state it in the

Wow. That's unreadable. Can we rewrite it something like (commenting each
check):
if (!page)
break;
if (xa_is_value(page) || xa_is_internal(page))
return false;
if (!PageCompound(page))
return false;

You also need to check that VMA alignment is suitable for huge pages.

It has to be
ret = alloc_set_pte(vmf, vmf->memcg, hugepage);
right?

It looks backwards to me. I believe the page must be in page cache
*before* it got mapped.
I expect all sorts of weird bug due to races when the page is mapped but
not visible via syscalls.

Why require PROT_EXEC && PROT_READ. You only must ask for !PROT_WRITE.
And how do you protect against mprotect() later? Should you ask for
ro-file instead?

All size considerations are already handled by thp_get_unmapped_area(). No
need to duplicate it here.
You might want to add thp_ro_get_unmapped_area() that would check file for
RO, before going for THP-suitable mapping.
