mm/huge_memory.c: don't split THP page when MADV_FREE syscall is called
We don't need to split THP page when MADV_FREE syscall is called if [start, len] is aligned with THP size. The split could be done when VM decide to free it in reclaim path if memory pressure is heavy. With that, we could avoid unnecessary THP split. For the feature, this patch changes pte dirtness marking logic of THP. Now, it marks every ptes of pages dirty unconditionally in splitting, which makes MADV_FREE void. So, instead, this patch propagates pmd dirtiness to all pages via PG_dirty and restores pte dirtiness from PG_dirty. With this, if pmd is clean(ie, MADV_FREEed) when split happens(e,g, shrink_page_list), all of pages are clean too so we could discard them.
