Here's the second version of the patchset.

The intend of the work is get code ready to enable transparent huge page
cache for the most simple fs -- ramfs.

We have read()/write()/mmap() functionality now. Still plenty work ahead.

One offline question.

Why set PG_mlocked to page_tail which be splited in function __split_huge_page_refcount?


Any feedback is welcome.

Changes since v1:
  - mmap();
  - fix add_to_page_cache_locked() and delete_from_page_cache();
  - introduce mapping_can_have_hugepages();
  - call split_huge_page() only for head page in filemap_fault();
  - wait_split_huge_page(): serialize over i_mmap_mutex too;
  - lru_add_page_tail: avoid PageUnevictable on active/inactive lru lists;
  - fix off-by-one in zero_huge_user_segment();
  - THP_WRITE_ALLOC/THP_WRITE_FAILED counters;

TODO:
  - memcg accounting has not yet evaluated;
  - collapse;
  - migration (?);
  - stats, knobs, etc.;
  - tmpfs/shmem enabling;
