From: Ryan Roberts <ryan.roberts@xxxxxxx>

Add thp_anon= cmdline parameter to allow specifying the default enablement
of each supported anon THP size.  The parameter accepts the following
format and can be provided multiple times to configure each size:

thp_anon=<size>,<size>[KMG]:<value>;<size>-<size>[KMG]:<value>

An example:

thp_anon=16K-64K:always;128K,512K:inherit;256K:madvise;1M-2M:never

See Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst for more details.

Configuring the defaults at boot time is useful to allow early user
space to take advantage of mTHP before its been configured through
sysfs.

Should we only pickup these values if "anon_orders_configured", otherwise start with 0? Likely that's implicit right now.

This only works as long as we don't have any "Holes", which is the case right now.
