[PATCH v2 1/3] mm: shmem: simplify the suitable huge orders validation for tmpfs

From: Baolin Wang
Date: Sat Jul 13 2024 - 09:24:48 EST


Move the suitable huge orders validation into shmem_suitable_orders() for
tmpfs, which can reuse some code to simplify the logic.

In addition, we don't have special handling for the error code -E2BIG when
checking for conflicts with PMD sized THP in the pagecache for tmpfs, instead,
it will just fallback to order-0 allocations like this patch does, so this
simplification will not add functional changes.
