Subject: [PATCH] thp, vmstat: implement HZP_ALLOC and HZP_ALLOC_FAILED events

From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@...ux.intel.com>

HZP_ALLOC event triggers on every huge zero page allocation, including
allocations which where dropped due race with other allocation.

HZP_ALLOC_FAILED event triggers on huge zero page allocation fail
(ENOMEM).
