Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 00/16] Address some perf memory/data size issues


FWIW I think the whole patchkit could be replaced with a one liner
that disables THP for the BSS segment. I suspect that would be roughly
equivalent for memory consumption because 4K pages that are never
touched would never be allocated.
