Subject: [PATCH] mm: thp: register mm for khugepaged when merging vma for shmem

When merging anonymous page vma, if the size of vam can fit in at least
one hugepage, the mm will be registered for khugepaged for collapsing
THP in the future.

But, it skips shmem vma. Doing so for shmem too when merging vma in
order to increase the odd to collapse hugepage by khugepaged.

Also increase the count of shmem THP collapse. It looks missed before.
