[PATCH] mm/thp: fix "mm: thp: kill __transhuge_page_enabled()"

From: Zach O'Keefe
Date: Sat Aug 12 2023 - 17:01:57 EST


The 6.0 commits:

commit 9fec51689ff6 ("mm: thp: kill transparent_hugepage_active()")
commit 7da4e2cb8b1f ("mm: thp: kill __transhuge_page_enabled()")

merged "can we have THPs in this VMA?" logic that was previously done
separately by fault-path, khugepaged, and smaps "THPeligible".

During the process, the check on VM_NO_KHUGEPAGED from the khugepaged
path was accidentally added to fault and smaps paths. Certainly the
previous behavior for fault should be restored, and since smaps should
report the union of THP eligibility for fault and khugepaged, also opt
smaps out of this constraint.

Fixes: 7da4e2cb8b1f ("mm: thp: kill __transhuge_page_enabled()")
