[PATCH v3 3/6] mm: shmem: add multi-size THP sysfs interface for anonymous shmem

[Baolin Wang]

To support the use of mTHP with anonymous shmem, add a new sysfs interface
'shmem_enabled' in the '/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-kB/'
directory for each mTHP to control whether shmem is enabled for that mTHP,
with a value similar to the top level 'shmem_enabled', which can be set to:
"always", "inherit (to inherit the top level setting)", "within_size", "advise",
"never", "deny", "force". These values follow the same semantics as the top
level, except the 'deny' is equivalent to 'never', and 'force' is equivalent
to 'always' to keep compatibility.

By default, PMD-sized hugepages have enabled="inherit" and all other hugepage
sizes have enabled="never" for '/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-xxkB/shmem_enabled'.

In addition, if top level value is 'force', then only PMD-sized hugepages
have enabled="inherit", otherwise configuration will be failed and vice versa.
That means now we will avoid using non-PMD sized THP to override the global
huge allocation.

+Anonymous shmem can also use "multi-size THP" (mTHP) by adding a new sysfs knob
+to control mTHP allocation: /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-<size>kB/shmem_enabled.
+Its value for each mTHP is essentially consistent with the global setting, except
+for the addition of 'inherit' to ensure compatibility with the global settings.
