Subject: mm/thp: fix doc for transparent huge zero page

Transparent huge zero page is used during the page fault instead of in
khugepaged.

# ls /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/
defrag  enabled  khugepaged  use_zero_page
# ls /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/
alloc_sleep_millisecs  defrag  full_scans  max_ptes_none  pages_collapsed  pages_to_scan  scan_sleep_millisecs

This patch corrects the documentation just like the codes done.
