Unfortunately, this suffers the same problem as FOLL_ANON.  Huge pages
are backed by hugetlbfs, and vma->vm_file will be filled in.

I guess you could check is_file_hugepages(vma->vm_file):

        if (vma->vm_file &&
            !is_file_hugepages(vma->vm_file)) {
                ret = -EOPNOTSUPP;
                break;
       }

That works for me.
