Overall, I haven't found any obvious issues, thanks for your work.
However I got some percentage regression when running thpcompact on my
machine(16 cores and 120G memory) without enabling mTHP:
k6.8-rc1 k6.8-rc1-patched
Percentage huge-1 86.19 ( 0.00%) 51.17 ( -40.63%)
Percentage huge-3 93.64 ( 0.00%) 42.48 ( -54.64%)
Percentage huge-5 94.93 ( 0.00%) 31.06 ( -67.28%)
Percentage huge-7 95.40 ( 0.00%) 19.09 ( -79.99%)
Percentage huge-12 93.51 ( 0.00%) 32.06 ( -65.71%)
Percentage huge-18 83.02 ( 0.00%) 54.58 ( -34.26%)
Percentage huge-24 83.17 ( 0.00%) 49.61 ( -40.35%)
Percentage huge-30 96.69 ( 0.00%) 59.82 ( -38.13%)

I did not have time to analyze this issue, just providing you some test
information. And I will measure the compaction efficiency of mTHP if I
find some time.
