shmem: prepare huge= mount option and sysfs knob
This patch adds new mount option "huge=". It can have following values: - "always": Attempt to allocate huge pages every time we need a new page; - "never": Do not allocate huge pages; - "within_size": Only allocate huge page if it will be fully within i_size. Also respect fadvise()/madvise() hints; - "advise: Only allocate huge pages if requested with fadvise()/madvise(); Default is "never" for now. "mount -o remount,huge= /mountpoint" works fine after mount: remounting huge=never will not attempt to break up huge pages at all, just stop more from being allocated. No new config option: put this under CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE, which is the appropriate option to protect those who don't want the new bloat, and with which we shall share some pmd code. Prohibit the option when !CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE, just as mpol is invalid without CONFIG_NUMA (was hidden in mpol_parse_str(): make it explicit). Allow enabling THP only if the machine has_transparent_hugepage(). But what about Shmem with no user-visible mount? SysV SHM, memfds, shared anonymous mmaps (of /dev/zero or MAP_ANONYMOUS), GPU drivers' DRM objects, Ashmem. Though unlikely to suit all usages, provide sysfs knob /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled to experiment with huge on those. And allow shmem_enabled two further values: - "deny": For use in emergencies, to force the huge option off from all mounts; - "force": Force the huge option on for all - very useful for testing; Based on patch by Hugh Dickins.
