Arghh.. Last second changes...
This should be
unsigned long long shmem_huge_min_size __read_mostly = HPAGE_PMD_SIZE;

Subject: [PATCH] shmem: avoid huge pages for small files
Huge pages are detrimental for small file: they causes noticible
overhead on both allocation performance and memory footprint.
This patch aimed to address this issue by avoiding huge pages until file
grown to specified size. This would cover most of the cases where huge
pages causes regressions in performance.
By default the minimal file size to allocate huge pages is equal to size
of huge page.
We add two handle to specify minimal file size for huge pages:
- mount option 'huge_min_size';
- sysfs file /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_min_size for
in-kernel tmpfs mountpoint;
Few notes:
- if shmem_enabled is set to 'force', the limit is ignored. We still
want to generate as many pages as possible for functional testing.
- the limit doesn't affect khugepaged behaviour: it still can collapse
pages based on its settings;
- remount of the filesystem doesn't affect previously allocated pages,
but the limit is applied for new allocations;
