If so, sorry, I did not see that at all... Sorry, actually, this patch does not change the number printed to userspace. It only changes the unit of the vmstat counter. Without this patch, every counter of NR_FILE_THPS represents NR_FILE_THPS pages. However, with this patch, every counter represents only one page. And why do I want to do this?
