I was wondering if we want to keep NR_FILE_THPS permanently for
original flavor 512 basepage THPs, or whether they should account
large folios as well? Same for NR_ANON_THPS and NR_SHMEM_THPS.

If so, then I agree this should all be conditional on pmdmapped. I
suppose the same in filemap_unaccount_folio().
