Subject: [PATCHv3, RFC 16/34] thp, mm: add event counters for huge page alloc on write to a file

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

Existing stats specify source of thp page: fault or collapse. We're
going allocate a new huge page with write(2). It's nither fault nor
collapse.

Let's introduce new events for that.
