mm: thp: fix false negative of shmem vma's THP eligibility
Commit 7635d9cbe832 ("mm, thp, proc: report THP eligibility for each vma") introduced THPeligible bit for processes' smaps. But, when checking the eligibility for shmem vma, __transparent_hugepage_enabled() is called to override the result from shmem_huge_enabled(). It may result in the anonymous vma's THP flag override shmem's. For example, running a simple test which create THP for shmem, but with anonymous THP disabled, when reading the process's smaps, it may show: 7fc92ec00000-7fc92f000000 rw-s 00000000 00:14 27764 /dev/shm/test Size: 4096 kB ... [snip] ... ShmemPmdMapped: 4096 kB ... [snip] ... THPeligible: 0 And, /proc/meminfo does show THP allocated and PMD mapped too: ShmemHugePages: 4096 kB ShmemPmdMapped: 4096 kB This doesn't make too much sense. The shmem objects should be treated separately from anonymous THP. Calling shmem_huge_enabled() with checking MMF_DISABLE_THP sounds good enough. And, we could skip stack and dax vma check since we already checked if the vma is shmem already. Also check if vma is suitable for THP by calling transhuge_vma_suitable(). And minor fix to smaps output format and documentation.
