I think that makes sense. Being large already amortizes the cost per base
page much more than pagevecs do (512 vs ~22 pages?).

We try to do this already, don't we? Any spefic case where we have THPs on
pagevecs?

For example like this?
__do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page
  lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable
    lru_cache_add
