[PATCH 7.2 v3 01/12] mm/khugepaged: remove READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS check

From: Zi Yan

Date: Fri Apr 17 2026 - 22:44:57 EST


collapse_file() requires FSes supporting large folio with at least
PMD_ORDER, so replace the READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS check with that.
MADV_COLLAPSE ignores shmem huge config, so exclude the check for shmem.

While at it, replace VM_BUG_ON with VM_WARN_ON_ONCE.

Add a helper function mapping_pmd_thp_support() for FSes supporting large
folio with at least PMD_ORDER.
