To me, SHMEM_ANON is more correct but it doesn't align with pmd-mapped THP. David, Ryan, what do you think?
The term "anonymous share" in the patch subject is weird to begin with ;) Easy to confuse with anonymous cow-shared memory. Let's just call it "anonymous shmem", which it is under the hood.
... regarding the question: if we add FILE_ALLOC and friends, at least initially, we wouldn't account other large pagecache folios.
... likely we should add that then as well so the counter matches the actual name?
If we later realize that we need separate FILE vs. SHMEM vs. WHATEVER counters, we can always add more fine-grained counters later. Doing it consistently w.r.t. traditional THPs first sounds reasonable.
