nit: rather than deriving the fault_mm here, I wonder if its cleaner to just
pass vma to shmem_huge_global_enabled()? shmem_huge_global_enabled() is just
using it as a guard to access vm_flags, which you can just as easily do by
testing the vma for non-NULL. And you can access mm flags with vma->vm_mm->flags
after testing the vma too.

Make sense to me, and will do in next version.
