[PATCH 3/5] mm: add pmd level THP COW judgement helpers

[Luka Bai]

From: Luka Bai <lukabai@xxxxxxxxxxx>

We add hugepage_cow_always and hugepage_cow_madvise as two convenient
helpers to decide whether we want to do THP COW under each specific
circumstance.

Also, we add a helper hugepage_cow_enabled to help us know the setup
more easily. THP COW is only opened when hugepage is globally enabled
or madvise enabled.
