Reviewing these bounds-checking tests is so hard :( Can we simplify?

void khugepaged_enter_vma(struct vm_area_struct *vma,
unsigned long vm_flags)
{
if (test_bit(MMF_VM_HUGEPAGE, &vma->vm_mm->flags))
return;
if (!khugepaged_enabled())
return;
if (round_up(vma->vm_start, HPAGE_PMD_SIZE) >=
(vma->vm_end & HPAGE_PMD_MASK))
return; /* vma is too small */
if (!hugepage_vma_check(vma, vm_flags))
return;
__khugepaged_enter(vma->vm_mm);
}
Also, it might be slightly faster to have checked MMF_VM_HUGEPAGE
before khugepaged_enabled(), but it looks odd. And it might be slower,
too - more pointer chasing.
I wish someone would document hugepage_vma_check().
