Now the tmpfs can allow to allocate any sized large folios, and the default

the default huge policy will be helpful to use the large folios for tmpfs,

I think it would be good to include a summary of why tmpfs is not
enabling large folios by default as the other fs. David has been
pretty good at repeating the reasons over and over and it would be very
valuable to have them included here.
Yes. We also discussed in v4 the idea of having a Kconfig option to just
change the default policy to "always". We could mention that here as well.
