Reviewing these bounds-checking tests is so hard :(  Can we simplify?

void khugepaged_enter_vma(struct vm_area_struct *vma,
			  unsigned long vm_flags)
{
	if (test_bit(MMF_VM_HUGEPAGE, &vma->vm_mm->flags))
		return;
	if (!khugepaged_enabled())
		return;
	if (round_up(vma->vm_start, HPAGE_PMD_SIZE) >=
			(vma->vm_end & HPAGE_PMD_MASK))
		return;		/* vma is too small */
	if (!hugepage_vma_check(vma, vm_flags))
		return;
	__khugepaged_enter(vma->vm_mm);
}


Also, it might be slightly faster to have checked MMF_VM_HUGEPAGE
before khugepaged_enabled(), but it looks odd.  And it might be slower,
too - more pointer chasing.

I wish someone would document hugepage_vma_check().
