Subject: proc/smaps: add PMDMappable field to smaps
Date: Wed, 6 Jul 2022 16:59:31 -0700
Add PMDMappable field to smaps output which informs the user if memory in
the VMA can be PMD-mapped by MADV_COLLAPSE.
The distinction from THPeligible is needed for two reasons:
1) For THP, MADV_COLLAPSE is not coupled to THP sysfs controls, which
THPeligible reports.
2) PMDMappable can also be used in HugeTLB fine-granularity mappings,
which are independent from THP.
