From: Yang Yang <yang.yang29@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/vmstat: add events for THP max_ptes_* exceeds There are interfaces to adjust max_ptes_none, max_ptes_swap, max_ptes_shared values, see /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/. But system administrator maynot know which value is the best. So Add those events to support adjusting max_ptes_* to suitable values. For example, if default max_ptes_swap value causes too much failures, and system uses zram whose IO is fast, administrator could increase max_ptes_swap until THP_SCAN_EXCEED_SWAP_PTE not increase anymore.
